From a Honda dealer, but they are very expensive.

thanks for the swift reply - do you know how much?

could i adapt the rubbers from something like an MX5 or is there a 'bodge' fix - mine just don't seal together fully in the middle and on the passenger side aren't pushed against the window

Cant see some from a MX5 fitting. If I remember rightly all 6 rubbers (3 each side) worked out about £300.

There is quite a bit of adjustment on the window regulator.

also filling the void inside the rubbers with thin strips of foam will bulk the seal out and create a better seal.

I used foam pipe lagging cut to the same length of seal and about 10 - 15mm square section and slide it in the holes in the back of the rubber.
