Photos of Lowlight etc rubber seals.

I've found a large box of rubber seal pieces in a box. Problem is that I'm not sure which bits are lowlight, which bits are bonnet seals, which are bootlid seals etc. Are there any good links to pics or can anyone show pics of the correct cross sections for the various seals?
Thanks.

I'll need to order the right bits before final shaping of the bodywork prior to painting.

Can you post some photos and I might be able to identify some of them or know someone who can.

Thanks, Mike. These are the ones I'm not sure about. I've 'sussed' the one for the bonnet rear lip area.[frame]Image[/frame]

I've noticed that there isn't much space for door seals unless I have them really thin. Are MM/Lowlight ones different from later cars? Also, what supplier is recommended for green wing beading? I have a load of black beading without any holes in but it isn't going to suit a green car.

Hills Rubber Co. in Reading produced some beading. Contact Frank for details. He would probably know what the other bits are.
