Do you mean the window scrapers? I am also looking for one with no luck so far (the inside one). Let me know how you go and I'll certainly let you know if i manage to find them...

I have noticed mk2 window and door seals for sale on ebay, they can also be found at "Rare Spares" (www.rarespares.net.au), if you email them they get back to you and let you know if the item is in stock. They are pretty good for escort parts.

thanks for all the replies, i have used the rare spares seals before (outer) and they are rubbish, it is a soft compound rubber that is sold in length and you have to cut it to fit , from what i have heard now though east kent trim supplies sell the original seals yee haa.

Personally wouldn't buy from East Kent Trim. As already stated, heard mixed reports about them and so if the rubber cracks on you how are you going to go about warranty and exchange/refund bits & pieces? Going to send it all the way back to the uk? Would either go spectrum rubber or scott's old auto rubber.
