Yes - come to thinking about it you are right - those bits are with the Restorers and I've not seen them for a while hence I'd forgotten they are attached - need to inspect them to check the state of the furflex on them.

Much appreciated

UPDATE 6TH DECEMBER 2011

Didn't expect to but have found THREE places over here in the UK who seem to do what I'm looking for so I've sent for samples so I can check them out to see if any would be okay and if so which is best.

However no one either in the USA or here does that clever little curving flick up at the end of each piece - they only sell straight pieces, mostly long bits to cut to length.

Do I assume that most of you have fitted them straight ? and hoped for the best regarding water ingress OR have you found a way to fabricate/manipulate these curved up ends ?

Love to hear from someone who has replaced these before I start.

Best regards Michael
