Can anybody suggest a suitable product to replace the foam seal located along the top of my grilles? Can you still buy the stuff from BMW?

I also need a similar thing to go behind the rear quarter window trims.

Any ideas?

Cheers

I bought mine by the role (a few quid a metre) from local hardware store. They had a few different thicknesses and widths

Thanks,

I'll have a look at B&Q. The proper stuff from BMW is £15
