The rubber seal and fuzzy at the top of the door on the 1974 MG Midget does not appear in the Moss catalogue as far as I can see. Anyone know where it is located?

You should also know that installing those is not trivial. Moss also sells a tool that, although not absolutely necessary and a little over priced, helps enough to make its price more than acceptable. > Door Window Seal Clip Installation Tool <

Thank you for that tip.
I probable plan to take the door apart so I can paint them and repair the rubber parts. Not sure what a job that will be but it may make installing the rubber seal and fuzzy seal easier.

There are several youtube videos about the doors. I do suggest watching more than one since many of their methods are less than ideal. Also most left the window scrapers out. After finally getting mine back together, I am convinced that the scrapers have to be the last think installed. I think I covered it pretty well on my web page here > Sprite Restoration - Chapter VIII < Scroll down a couple of screens for a description as the order of assembly is pretty specific.
