66 Grande Parisienne window seals


Has anyone replaced the seals on one of these cars? I only find repros listed at one supplier in the US for a Grand Prix. I am assuming they are the same but does someone actually have experience with using the US part on our Canadian car?

All I know is the profile of most of repo's are a bit different. Especially on the vert ones. Paul.

 hi Carl; if I were a betting man I would say they are the same ?  However email me with the measurements of the front and rear outers & I will check for you.

 Yes I have 2 manufacturers that  make  either a 4-pc outers only or 8pc compete set. However neither offer the OE style and I suspect that is the product what you saw on other sites. We offer several other  Parisienne window felts that are OE style. Check our web site

Do you have the US pieces available to you Dale?

I don't have the old ones out yet but I can see what I can get for dimensions. Thanks in advance!

Yes, I ended up buying Grand Prix window felts from NOS Reproductions and was real happy with them.

I had to do a couple of minor tweaks but I don't think it had anything to do with Grand Prix vs Grande Parisienne, but rather just that it was a reproduction part and they are never identical.

I don't know if you have experience with doing them but if you don't, I put a bit of help with doing it in this thread-
