You don’t mention what model you have. I had checked with Steele a few months ago about revulcanize my strikers and found that for the 120s, Steele only does the part numbers for the convertible cars. The strikers for the closed cars are different and Steele does not do those.

My driver's side did the same thing. I used the old rubber core and put a layer of permatex (black) on it being careful not to fill in the mounting holes. Clamped it in the vise overnight. Good to go.
3 years later still working great. (Sorry the picture is kind of blurry, it is cropped in from a larger one) Bob J. Attach file:  Door Jamb.JPG (230.08 KB)

You should be good with the revulcanizing at Steele since your car is a convertible. They do those. They don’t do the strikers for the closed cars.

And I apologize, it was not Permatex, I used Black Automotive Goop, a very strong RTV. Great all around product even for under hood applications.
