cougar weatherstrip/dew wipes 86 cougar Reply #2 – April 10, 2015, 08:22:37 AM The JC Whitney part numbers are constantly changing...I really have no idea how a business can successfully run that way, but that's the way they've always done things. Anyhow, I don't have a recent catalog to compare numbers. But that's where I've always bought universal replacement weatherstripping; they even had some that fit the convertible. If I find something I'll post here. Quote Selected

I still have the parts in my garage I will look later and see if there are #s or atleast get you a pic Quote Selected

cougar weatherstrip/dew wipes 86 cougar Reply #5 – April 12, 2015, 08:59:28 AM Well I cant get a super good picture but there is a tag on it that says 819751. I know when I was looking to do this there was a really good write up on here about doing it. I also had made a post of my own with my results and pics but since I am not on here as much anymore I cant even find that. I did go on the JC Whitney site and found a seal that uses part #JCW-819751 MFR#1369-4 and it looks identical to the profile of what I have. I do remember it needed trimmed as its to long and as stated above JC Whitney #'s seem to change constantly. Quote Selected
