Something I have always seen since taking ownership of my westy I'd the frisge door doenst seal right.
The rubber is extremely hard now 40 years old. Does anyone know it a replacement seal can be got or any tips to make the fridge seal better.

Re: Westfalia fridge seal
I appreciate that this is now a 5yr old post, but did you, or anyone else sort out a replacement/alternative seal for the westy fridge?
I've been scouting the inter web and found very little about the seals, but I'm pretty sure my seal only touches a few posts of the fridge and asked all that lovely cold air out...
I am wondering if something like an adhesive backed bubble seal may work, or if it has to be a specific material/shape..?

Re: Westfalia fridge seal
Was sure I saw a grey seal the other day when searching for an element.
Can't remember which site or if a UK one.
Could have been Serial Combi in France Serial Combi Seal
Also I see one is on German eBay Fridge Seal which looks like it is in Poland but can ship to UK.
I've not ordered from EU since Brexit - back then shipping costs were high but if you know anyone based in Euro land or with family there, then you could ask if they could order and bring it over for you next time they visit.
