OEM ambulance door gaskets are sweet. They are precisely cut and fit like magic. I once tried CCoT's gaskets and they were a complete disaster - I threw them away. Whatever they cost, OEM ambulance door gaskets (at least) are well worth the cost.

Halfway there, she's like "Good god, why is it so loud?"
Yes, it’s like chasing some elusive prey. You’ve heard stories that quiet 40s exist and know that it’s theoretically possible but also that the effort required is almost limitless.That made me laugh - I can so relate to that. I have slowly been eliminating some of the worst rattles, but quiet it ain't ever gonna be.
When I put the hardtop back on a month or so ago, I did a really half assed effort at securing the front of the headliner, which is original. Had a can of gorilla glue spray adhesive and even though it said not recommended for headliners, I figured what the heck.
Well, the directions are there for a reason. It sagged after a week and I looked like a pizza delivery driver in a Tercel.
So I got a can of permatex to try to get it to just stick, figure I’ll do it right next spring when the top comes off again. Damn that stuff is good! I did it without removing the whole headliner. Definitely not perfect but pretty good for a 10 minute job. Used a paint roller to smooth it out.

I just went on eBay and picked one that looked right and OEM. I figured 50/50 it would be right and was pleasantly surprised. Also arrived in a week vs the estimated 3-6 weeks.Nice work, Goldbug! Looking good. Hey, can you link where you sourced that pop-out window latch? Ima needing one. Thanks!
