MG TD TF 1500 - Where to find one Side Curtain strip?

Can anyone suggest a place to find just one strip that I need for the rear window of my MG TF? There are 4 that surround the rear window, and I just need the top one. Ive looked on the vendor sites, but cant find just the one.

Many thanks!

How close is the strip for the TD? I have several strips available. I would need to know the length.

Thanks Rick! Ill check the length and let you know.

TM,

Hope you get the right length, but if not longer will do. The originals are made of brass and are easy to cut to length + 1/8", and then filed/emery papered to a point, removing the flange on the tapered part. The + 1/8" allows for errors - the final point can always be taken back to the exact mesurement! Then get rechromed - I've done several in the past.

Good luck,

John
