Which seals am I likely to need?

I fitted a Precision set of door seals to my Fairlady today. The quality is excellent compared to other repros I’ve had for cars over the years. The tail light seals and headlamp bucket seals have also fitted really nicely.

For anyone looking to just do door seals, I have found that the leaf type seal that car builder solutions offer is similar and provides a decent fit. I ordered a metre as an experiment. At £4 a metre is a good cheap alternative. Here’s a comparison between the Precision profile and the leaf seal

Glad you've said that as I've just ordered that set to Mike's! :) And $249 is a great price I think. Glad Zstore was out of stock now, I've saved myself $120.

Which one is the precision in that photo?

People seem to have had success with 2002 Kia Sportage seals too, so plenty of options out there.

Precision is the top one. Did you go to Zcardepot and use the discount?

Nope, I must have temporarily mislaid the knowledge that there was a discount code.. Bollocks! I found them on Summit Racing. Still, $249 and free US postage was very good - over $60 cheaper than I could find anywhere else including eBay.

*Edit* I remember now I did check them but their kit is out of stock and more expensive $299 so about $270 with the discount. Phew!
