Is there a document or description somewhere that goes through the correct seals, and fittings for BJ8 door/weather seals etc.

In looking for sources of furflex I have started to notice various clips etc that I don't recognise on my car... etc

eg .

'Shut Pillar seal set'...

Now these may be on the car - but I don't recognise them from the photo...
And it seemed from one catalog I was looking through that the type of weather seal varied from above and below the window glass?

I've not had good luck with their windlace__their clips were made of aluminum, instead of spring-steel.

You can imagine the results: fit the windlace, close the door/open the door, windlace falls on the floor...

This was some years ago, and that may no longer be the case, but I've learned my lesson.

A better product then furflex is Bristleflex.
Furflex does not want to clip on and stay on.
The Bristleflex presses on and stays firmly in place. The rubber is much softer too.
Bristleflex comes in an assortment of colors too. I think Moss only sells black, but you can buy the colored ones directly from the sorce.

Actually, Moss has it on back order 4 or 5 months now with no expected date. The mfg does not return calls or emails.

Moss only sells the black/grey.
I've purchased blue from mfg three times and he always been very helpful and stands behind his product.

Yep:
You cant even glue furflex on.
Go direct to Martin Maggregor in canada for the Bristlflex
There are two metal clips that secure the seal to the top of the rear inside upholstery panels.
A factory manual will show you how to do it
