I am renovating my 1975 Beetle and am looking to replace all of its rubber seals. I was wondering if anyone knew of any local places that supply them? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you Hannah

GSF parts supplies seals, but if want some decent ones then Alan schofields the company you need.

try the samba.com IMO the american imported seals are much better quality and generally 70% of the uk price

Any idea on the delivery time to the uk? Is it still worthwhile with shipping costs and any import duty?
A couple of people have suggested status vw for seals, anyone used them before? Cheers

Cheers I had a set of Westy seals sent to me in March, they arrived within 4 days and paid no import tax. They have a good website www.wolfsburgwest.com/I know that Karmann Konnection buy thier seals from Wolfsburg West & sell them over here at an inflated price. & so do quite a lot of the UK retailers

As Herman says Wolfsburg West do seals. However for your Cabrio Beetle IMO the best seals and indeed parts for cabrios you get from the US - Chucks Convertible - www.chucksconvertibleparts.com let him know your from the UK and also that you belong to a VW club so he can give you discount, he is an ok fella
