I got all mine from spectrum They all came in rolls & you have to work where they go & cut them too length yourself Then I bought a heap off new clips & made the holes in the rubbers for the clips Prick of a job but worth the effort Gluing on just doesnt work comes off in the heat Gluing the corners dosnt seem to work either keeps coming undone Lots of luck
Hi Resto, what did you use to make the holes in the rubbers? Cheers Gordon

Hi Gordon Now you cant cut a slit with a knife it will just keep splitting you have to punch a small hole you cant use one of thoes leather punches as they will go right through the lot SO I got some fencing wire about 2mm diameter  sqaired the end & drilled a hole up in the end to form a punch & done them all by hand took ages but turned out great Cheers Reid
