Ben,

Thanks for the info. I panicked and bought the front windshield from
gowesty.com ($80!) to get the van home next week.  will need it to get the
vehicle home from the bodyshop! (my ski goggles didn't sound like a great
idea) but I  still need the rest.

I'll try vanagonparts.com

Shawn,

I can get the front windshield seal locally for $47. These are original FEBI
seal from Germany w/o the chrome groove. My pats guy is vacationing in
mexico but I can sell you one of my spares if you are in a hurry. I arranged
a group buy of these things before for even less money. But right now I
don't feel like mailing out dozens of these at one time. One at a time I can
handle. Shipping is probably about $8 if I can get them to fit inside a
Priority Mail box.

You can also try Jeff at www.vanagonparts.com. I know he has very good
wholesale prices. His retail prices shouldn't be too bad either. I'll be
dropping by his shop this weekend since I bought a third home in the same
city his shop is in. Don't spread it around but it's my understanding that
GoWesty orders some of their window seals from him.

I have no interest financial or otherwise in any of these enterprises. I
just happen to buy parts from them.

Does anyone have a good source for the entire set of window seal needs for
my westy restore project?

Busdepot.com is back ordered 3 out of 6 of the seals I need with no sure
restock date and gowesty.com wants TWICE the price that busdepot.com wanted.

Where did you buy yours?
