100-4 brake / clutch pedal seals not available

[LuckyLuke]

Since the rubber seals that seal the brake and clutch pedal to the Body are not available anymore….. I like to see if someone had success to home making them out of something else.

I assume that you are referring to the "draft excluder" rubber bits that fit over the pedal stalks & seal the underside to the floor board. The metal backing plates should still be on the stalks.

I've had good luck cutting 3/8" high density foam to shape, slitting the bottom edge, slipping the foam over the stalk, & gluing the foam to the metal backing plate.

Thanks, the draft excluder is what I need. What kind of rubber foam did you use? Source ?

I used Volara. You can see it here:

I think there should be something available locally. It is used for sleeping pads, exercise mats, etc.

Also nice for replacing felt under carpets. Doesn't absorb water.
