Mk2 16v Ariel seal/ rubber June 19, 2020, 03:53:36 PM Can any one point me in the direction of where I can buy the sealing rubber that sits on top of the roof below the Ariel that stops water getting into the car. Heritage say I need to buy an Ariel as it comes with the ariel. Surely someone sells the rubber seal separately.
