G'day all. I have sent email to spectrum re: rubber seals, asking if the require a frame and a sample of rubber to do the seals and also if they require a template of the rear glass for the ute to make sure the fit and more importantly the actually work. once I have received the answer/info back I will place the order. at this point I am ordering 2 rear ute glass, one for me one for thou ute. I am also getting 6 pairs of vent seals, 2 pairs for me, 1 pair for thou ute, 1 pair for Matthew Sturdee and I will maybe have 2 pairs spare at a highly inflated price...lol. I have also inquired if coupe ones are available.

Hi All,
Here's the deal re: 1/4 vent seals. Spectrum will do them for me and I will send them up my old ones and a frame from my wagon (unless someone has a crap one to donate) to make sure fitment is no issue.

That leads me to this, they have to order 50 corners to do the seals and I only need 12 corners for the 6 pairs. So if you are serious and do want them at $52 a pair (plus postage) let me know, because if I have to order 25 pairs I will but the price will go up (or I will be stuck with them and have to buy every 1K I can find to use them on!)

So please please please pm me if you want a pair as they will take a while to get hold of, it may even go to next year unless the quantity forces them to get them done quicker.

Wow 25 sets!! 
 
Well i'm down for a set for sure.
 
i'm sure over time you'd sell them all anyway. I might end up getting another 1k one day. Never know

Once I have finalised the quantity and have placed the order which will hopefully take place early next week, I will have the proforma sent through and payment after that but I will let everyone know. Its just taking a bit longer than hoped to get numbers finalised and more importantly to make sure they fit perfect. Based on the amount you want we are very close to 25 pairs, bloody awesome!!

put me down for two pairs please

I am in for one pair
Assuming they would fit inside, the Aussie post 3kg express satchel (about$16) could be the go

Well to get hold of a sample would require them to order the 50 corners anyway and that was not going to happen. I guess that's the reason why I am sending them my old rubber and a frame from my wagon to ensure perfect fitment and don't forget no one is obligated to get them through me but someone has to do something more than talk about it. If there is a rubber available from Thailand why hasn't anyone found out about these?? where are they from, what company? I don't care where we get them but so long as we do!
So far as rare spares is concerned I can only go on my experience and I have just had my screen fitted with a rare spares seal and it was perfect. once again I will put it out there, WHO EVER WANTS A SET PM ME OR YOU MISS OUT. I have already wasted a week and want to order them.
I will request a sample but for us to get a sample requires a commitment which means I will need payment and quantities so order can be placed.

This post did start in July and still no supplier sourced or suggested so Spectrum it will be. I don't need a headache or grief just trying to help out! worst comes to worst I will order enough to make up for spectrum to order 50 corners and as I said in a previous post sell them at an inflated price rather than cost.

I understand the hesitation as this is only my first build of a 1000 and as I'm sure your aware of the standard of my build, I also am hesitant. I am relying on Spectrum to do the right thin by us all by having my frame and rubber as a guide, surely they can't stuff it up. Being a cabinet maker by trade I'm a bit of a fish out of water trying to arrange all this as I don't have the contacts that a lot of the guys on here do or the experience with 1000's. Regardless I'm going to have to prolong the ordering of these as I don't really need 14 sets for myself so that's why I wanted numbers. I guess I got excited when I read you wanted 10-15 as that put us in the market but now I need to wait until I can get it to at least 20 sets because then at least I can cover the additional 5 sets to sell off at a later date. 
So all of you know I am rounding the price up to $25 a side which means I'm making a huge 83 cents per side so it's not about the money for me, it's about seals for all of us. If anyone wanted some after the first batch they would also have to order 25 sets and a possible 3 month lead time.
please don't take any of this the wrong way, I'm not pissed off just frustrated how hard even simple things become to try and get quality parts for our choice of obsession.

I'm also interested. I'll send you a PM.

Good news all, I have the numbers we need to place the order. I will pm all who are on board with details for payment.
