Seal carrier cross sections

Postby C3LOS » Sat 25.03.2017, 10:36

....has anyone got cross sections of the following seals carriers as I have a friend at work who is responsible for developing seals and could help me develop some for my car?

Front Hood seal carrier
A pillar seal carrier
3 hood side seal carriers

Whatever we develop will be shared with LEC (no competition Jamie!)

Thanks in advance
Carl

Are you asking for the metal bit that the seals sits in?
