As anyone who owns one knows, finding 242 specific parts in good condition is getting more and more difficult as these cars get older and older. Does anyone make rubber window wiper trim? I'm talking about the stuff along the top edge of the door which keeps water and debris from going down inside the door. Mine is getting hard and brittle to the point that it's very uncomfortable to rest my arm on the sill with the window open. Perhaps someone sells rolls of the rubber extrusion that could be used to replace the originals?

That link doesn't work for me, it tells me I don't have permission to access it, even though I'm logged in.
James,
Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner, I'm trying to get the Alfa ready for a show this weekend and haven't been online much.
Here is a copy of the post on the T-Bricks site with a link to his website, it should be all the info you need. I have no vested interest in this product.
Hope this helps,.

We have just paid to have 240 outside window scrapers made. They are being copied exactly from a NOS window scraper I had. We are assured that with todays rubber technology, we will be able to offer a LIFETIME WARRANTY on them and will do so. The company making these for us also makes window scrapers for large car manufacturers, so these are the real deal and not some cheap low volume low quality parts.
240 window scrapers are no longer available from the dealer and the last time they were available, they were around $100 EACH window. With ours you will be able to re-seal your entire car for less than $100! Each set will contain both left and right proper length outside window scrapers for your specified model. Each set is for the outside window scraper rubber only, you will use your old metal trim and installation is easy and straightforward.There is a big expense for tooling and the minimum amount of material required to have window scrapers made is quite large. So to offset some of our initial cost we are going to offer the first 50 sets at an introductory price of $60.00 a set for 2 doors and $65.00 a set for 4 doors and wagons. This price includes shipping to anywhere in the US or Canada. Shipping to other countries available at additional cost. However, at the introductory price, price will be the same whether you buy 1 set or several sets. After the first 50 sets, prices will be set at $80.00 a set for 2 doors and $90.00 a set for 4 doors and wagons.
Feb. 1st Update: Unexpected delays have pushed estimated delivery date to the middle of March. Our apologies for any inconvenience.
