Does anyone know where to buy door handle gaskets?
Did an ebay search but no luck, although series I/II Jag ones look similar, did they use the same door handles?
Or does anyone have a CAD file of them?

I believe the early XJ6 did use the same handles, leastwise the outer castings

Cheers for that, bit expensive (as usual) but an option if these Jag ones don't fit.

I got the Rimmers large ones for my car, but for the small ones i got some Conduit Box Gasket Rubber and cut it to the right shape
it is just the right thickness and seems to have worked a treat,
