I read somewhere in the 55 threads the 60's are not the same size but work if you cut and paste ... but not identical... can't find it on a quick search but someone did it with success
ahhh found it... cruiser junktion used the 60 seals w some "dum dum" aka sealant...
I’d be in for 3 sets.

I’d be in for a set!
2 sets here, maybe 3...
Spoke to them on Reddit (I’m a mod in /r/landcruisers)
Yeah we have the upper tail gate and the fixed cargo window. The rear door and the vent window fell through at the last moment. We will be making them. Stay tuned.
This is better news then what they told me, good to hear for sure! Thanks for checking on it again!
I really need a set of the vent window rubber. I sourced everything for my pig but had to reuse the vent rubber. Would love to replace it.
Couple of sets !. Keep me posted.
Thanks.
Thanks.
I'm in for a set..thanks for the push on this
OK. I’ll let him know.
Thank you for letting me know. I really want to make this product for the '55. I started it, killed it, lost $6k in the process. To put that in perspective I hadn't finished paying for tooling or the minimum run of 1,000 units. I'll let you run the high level economics on that.
Please don't be offended by this offer, but if the '55 community will commit to finding 50 owners willing to prepay $200 a set, I'll have it done in 6 months time. Sounds like a lousy proposal, I know. I don't break even on 55 projects for 5-6 years..
To show you where I was in the process when I killed it. We had nailed the Dims, had run first articles, but they couldn't meet my quality requirements around flammability and others
Couldn't meet quality requirements around flammability? That's interesting. I would have assumed material selection would have been front and center before worrying about dimensions, etc. Of course what do I know about making weather-stripping?
I'm an antique and don't do spreadsheets.. But I do common sense fairly well when some woke puke isnt pissin me off.... my thought is the vendor is willing to throw dice, I'm in... put me down for two sets... I may live long enough to sell the second set for a profit myself....
Thanks again for the push on this.. worth it in my opinion..
I did a light switch plate once. (Had LEGO-compatible studs on it.) Flammability is and interesting and potentially difficult subject. Of course, there are national standards on light switch plates to meet. (It's not just "UL", but that's part of it.)
