The J.C. Whitney catalog has a large selection of seals shown by cross
section, so you might be able to find a match there. Also, look for a
manufacturer's decal or plate on the hardtop. Mine says "Snug Top", for
example.
Larry Hoy had this to say:
>> #2 can anyone provide me with a source for rubber seals (all of them,
>preferably) to fit a dealer-provided pebble-grained > hardtop before I
>go thru the labor of researching thru Hemmings vendors?

>In the U.S., Dealer provided pebble grained hardtops were an aftermarket
>top. There were several different manufacturers producing them. I suspect
>you are going to be faced with the "big search". I think your best bet is
>to go to the biggest upholstery shop in your town and show them the rubber,
>they may be able to point you in the right direction. When I was faced with
>the same issue I was directed to the upholstery shop's supplier. They have
>hundreds of different rubber seals. I never did find the exact match but I
>did find one "close enough".

>Good luck.
