NLA - no longer available. That is, unless you can find a 99 or early 900 sitting in a boneyard somewhere.....or get lucky like I did.

I was in need of a passenger door for my 75EMS resto, so I called Chip Lamb(West of Sweden Saab), to see if he had any leads. He put me in touch with a friend of his who had been sitting on two 76EMS doors for like 15 years. The doors came from a car that had an engine bay fire and they were in almost perfect condition, including the window seals and door seals. My 73 is in need of a driver side window seal, so now I have one for it. :)

What other seals do you need? C-900 quarter glass seals will work on a 99...they are longer and just need to be cut to fit. Door seals from a 900 should also work, though I have not verified this 100%. The trunk seal for a notchback can use a C-900 4 door trunk seal....and the two that I have replaced were very tight...as in it was hard as hell to close the lid with the new seal, even after adjusting the striker plate. 3dr 900 trunk seals should work in a 99, but since I don't own a 3dr, I'm only speculating.

One other possibility for the window seal is to get two of them from a C-900 and cut and splice them to get the length you need. I know it will not look 100% OK, but there aren't very many choices for us 99'ers.
