79 Spider Window/top seals.

I just purchased a 79 fiat spider that is in fairly good condition. For the most part it is rust free and only has slight surface problems here and there, under the crappy paint job.
The trunk, hood and door seals are still flexible and rubber like.
But, the ones for the windows and for the front of the top are in poor shape.

Where can i get replacements for a good price here in the US?
I know some web sites like JC Whitney sell a variety of generic replacement seals, Its probably much cheaper to go with them, but has anyone had any luck with non fiat seals?

Go to Bruce's Parts Bin, IAP, Vicks, Bayless or any other FIAT parts suppliers. They have what you need. STAY AWAY FROM JC WHITNEY!.

Re: 79 Spider Window/top seals.

window felt for some reason is difficult to find lately here in the USA.

replacement rubber you should have no trouble finding at our standard stateside Fiat vendors like George said. I routinely use the four he listed.

Re: 79 Spider Window/top seals.

Check with Bruces's Parts Bin. He supplied mine but that was 7 years ago.
