Default Quarter panel extension seals

Hi
Does anyone know where to get the quarter panel extension seals for -66 Bonneville
or what can be used instead if not available?

I don't believe these are being produced. Mine are good, but I know people have asked about them on some of the cars that I parted out. I thought of using a very small vacuum line cut open or trying to find some edge trim small enough to work like these from mcmaster

Call P/Y I think the 65 GTO is the same material. It may just be a matter of cutting them longer

I don't know if I got it right but on mine there was a piece remaining of a gasket which I believe should be the correct seal. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

I've looked for them too with no luck. I can't recall, but I think the headlight bezel seals are very similar. It was suggested to me to use the headlight seal and modify it to fit the rear extension. We'll see...it's too cold to find the parts in the shed to make a comparison.

That's it. The headlight bezel seats will work on the rear extensions, been there, done that, but forgot to get the T shirt. Mr Kind does it again.

The front bezels seals have been available for a long time from PY or Ames. I have one old rear ext. seal to help modify fronts when they're finally put back on the car...if that day ever comes. HA!
