Have a word with Chris at VW Emporium. Quality seals and service. However I'm not sure if he does none standard seals. Still worth a call though.

Hi,
Without photo difficult to say what you need. Probably standard Claytonite seal.
Try COH Baines or as has been mentioned Seals Direct.

Spoke to seals direct but no joy .the frame around window measures approx 25mm wide because there is a piece of wood glued to hightop and seal fits over this ,seals direct only do 12mm I am replacing wood as it's rotten so could use a 10mm board instead and this mite work.
