Since Matt wants to sit on his I will find another. The back window and steering column grommet is all I need. 2 Quote Link to comment
thisismatt Posted October 12, 2020 Report Share Posted October 12, 2020 You can have it if I die before it gets installed. Hey, we could both get lucky, that could be tomorrow...and you know I don't mean get it installed 😅 1 1 Quote Link to comment
Charlie69 Posted October 12, 2020 Report Share Posted October 12, 2020 (edited) I had a OEM NOS 520/521 back window rubber I bought in the 90's from a local Nissan dealer. I let Shawn have it when I helped him build a top for his 521. Problem was within a week it had cracked at all 4 corners. This was stored in my air conditioned house as long as I had it, and the the Nissan dealer had it warehoused in an AC environment. Edited October 12, 2020 by Charlie69 1 Quote Link to comment

MikeRL411 Posted October 12, 2020 Report Share Posted October 12, 2020 Just remember, if someone goes to the trouble of counterfeiting a part making an appropriate label is no big task. 1 Quote Link to comment
mainer311 Posted October 12, 2020 Report Share Posted October 12, 2020 Or because rubber parts in the 70’s were made of...rubber, and they don’t last 50 years in a bag. 1 Quote Link to comment
