Pelican Parts has it in stock - I had to look around to find it too. Just got some a few weeks ago. Don't know of a good substitute, sorry.

Apply WD40 to the outer surface of the seal and apply motor oil to the inner surface of the seal. The WD40 will dry up and get sticky, forming a tight seal. The motor oil will lubricate the inside of seal the way you need it. This is how the mechanics at my local Porsche shop install new rear main seals. I have never tried this myself...just passing along information from a mechanic I trust.

Default Best soft top product

Just got my S2 cab back from the paint shop and was just wondering what you guys have used or would recommend to use on the top to bring it back to life. It's in great cond just need to clean it real good.
