    Hi everyone,

    Does anyone have a decent passenger front, and or driver front window sweep for a four door Electra? Wouldn't mind swapping out my front set. Mine are fairly rough. Thanks much.

    New guy here doing some due diligence….

    I’m in the same boat. Literally lol.

    Haven’t received an email back but I did contact Steele rubber and rubber the right way. Buickparts appear to have the 2 door front felts. Once I get a chance I’ll compare front to rear and see if there’s a work around.

    Good luck… parts are hard to come by I’m finding BUT I’ve got a good base.

    IMG_20210806_222549949.jpg IMG_20210806_222549949.jpg I sent a a front and a rear in to Restoration Specialist out of Pennsylvania, and they made me a set of four outers. Pretty good quality. Contact them and have them make you up a set. They were 130 bucks or so with shipping. They are exact fits, and bolt right in. They didn't have patterns for the 4 door cars, but maybe they do now cause they had my originals. Hopefully they popped a couple for themselves to use for other folk.

    Appreciate the heads up.

    I still haven’t had the chance to pick mine up yet. The original owner has a ton of parts he doesn’t want left behind so it’s been a bit of a wait while he gathers them all. I don’t mind considering how scarce parts appear to be.

    He mentioned everything from bumper fillers to grills so we shall see what’s all inside.

    I did order a set of remote mirrors. Mine doesn’t have the factory passenger side but it will soon. Only thing is they are disassembled and that will be a bit of a chore I’m sure
