seals, not shields.  if you are trying to install anything other than the ones 
with a Healey Motor Works, santa barbara, ca overprint on them, you are wasting 
your time.  there is a good pic on page 109 ( center pic ) in the 
anderson/moment restoration guide.  bill bolton ( tricarb@aol.com or 
billb@healey.org ) was the only source for this item originally manufactured by 
don mollet in the late 70's.
visualize a gutter along the end of the dash panel and over the inner curvature 
of the fender.  note bottom pic on page 108 also.
