Where to order windshield seals for 78 Midget?

Need new seals for windshield frame to body on my 78 Midget.

Not looking for the high priced stuff, I know where that is.

I'm just looking for something that will work and not break the bank.
 
Rick,

MOSS Stuff worked fine for me. If you have a set of PosiDrive Bits you can take the side of the windshield frame apart and the gasket slips right in place no muss no fuss. Just be sure and use a PosiDrive Bit to get it apart so it doesn't strip the head.

Tip: cut a notch into shims so you can slide them back in place once you've got the 4 bolts started. Much easier if you need to do that by yourself.
 
Jim, is it the same for a RB car made in 78?

I ordered mine from VB and it was fine - I suspect they all come from the same source. There have been issues with the rubber covering the edge of the wipers but I think it is earlier models not later 3 wiper cars. I have a hunch that over the years there was more than one size but in reproduction there is only one. Bottom line, it will fit just fine and if you are doubt go to MacGregor in Dundas Ontario
