Where's the best place to get front and rear screen rubbers, it's a 1980 Sprint and it's got the beads in the rubbers. |

What were they like to fit and are they a good fit?Steve There was something some time ago about screen rubbers but I can't find the post now, and I remember someone coming highly recommended. |

I got front and rear rubbers with the chrome infill strips from Rimmers too. Fitted fine and don't leak, but I did use the black screen sealer stuff (Arbomast). |

They were easy to fit (well, as easy as any is). Years ago rimmers (and others) had a duff batch but I'm betting they're long gone. These were a perfect fit. The in-fill makes your thumbs hurt without the right tool. For the actual fitting I used a thin steel-renforced washing line and a gentle circular motion (if you just yank it you'll tear rubber). |

You can buy from Baines direct from their website, they are the people who supply Rimmers and most others |

Thanks guys, are they the best available or are there better ones, who's replaced theirs? |

Unless you're after an early style rear rubber (no bright trim insert) in EPDM from Chris Witor, then Baines is it. End of. |
