Caravelle sliding door window overhaul parts.

Does anyone know a ready source of the seals for a factory fitted opening door window as found on later velles? in particular the brush strips as I wish to get the ally frame powder coated black and re build to allow a draught free and smooth sliding operation.

got a couple of off cuts of new ones from when I refurbished Edna's windows 7 years ago when all the parts were still available bar the external top corner rubber but I'm not sure if the two offcuts even make one vertical, I've a spare bottom runner too I think they are nla
what about asking the place in Northants that can make Leisure Windows they must use something, maybe compatible with our frames
