>mgoc has said passenger side no longer available
sounds strange to me.
Why don't you ask at any MG Rover workshop ?
or at Rimmer Bros, Brown&Gammons, Trident etc.

RP,

Have a look at the following site (MGF/TF Central), go to tips and cheats, then leaks:

Sounds like a similar problem I have on the drivers side which I have yet to sort! Worth trying first in case its not the seals.

Right Deiter I need the seals for both sides and rear plus the cantrail and B-Post brackets as I have an older hardtop and a 2001 "freestyle"...I didn't pay a lot of money for it so .....I just want to get it resealed as per the convertion...are these available in Germany ?

Vielen Danke

Last time I asked, these seals were 'in severe constraint and 'moving towards unobtainable' from B&G as well as MGOC. I was told the seal manufacturer wasn't allowed to make any unless they were for XPART but that contracts hadn't been worked out.

Anybody know if there is any change in the situation??
