Trentomobol Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Well I have a pantera hatch on my 280z and the weatherstrip is old, and so is the plexiglass. The weatherstrip is also cut down in the center, makes washing the car cringeworthy, gotta put down towels on the inside so it doesn't get water absolutely everywhere. Plexiglass is completely fogged over and yellowed out, makes it hard to see through. I was wondering if anybody here knew where I could find a replacement weatherstrip? I contacted Z Force Productions, and he said there is an OEM weatherstrip that would work for it... but when I asked which one he didn't respond. Not angry at him at all, he's dealing with a newborn baby.. so I figured I'd ask if anybody here knew about em. Any help is highly appreciated!

jhm Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Are you talking about the weatherstripping for the hatch (i.e. the weatherstripping that's glued to the seam on the body)? That should be OEM, no? Sorry if I'm confused. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trentomobol Posted November 1, 2013 Author Share Posted November 1, 2013 Nah man, I mean the one that's for the pantera hatch window. Sorry I wasn't more specific. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhm Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 Aaaahhhh....thank you for clarifying; but sorry, I'm not able to help you there. Have always loved the look of the Pantera hatch though -- good luck with the repairs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kclank Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 (edited) I would think that if you took a piece of the weather strip to a body shop or auto window repair they could identify it and give you a source. please post any good results I need that piece to but it is way down my list. A good auto parts store my also have a catalog so you can match the profile. i would guess it has an H cross section. BTW if you could snap a couple of pics of the hinges and how they mount it would be much appreciated. the hatch i recived had a bunch of warps so I still have not firmly decided if i am going to fix and use the stock hatch. I am sure that a local glass shop could cut you some laminated glass to replace the plastic if you desire. i asked my local shop and they said no problem, Edited November 3, 2013 by Kclank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trentomobol Posted November 5, 2013 Author Share Posted November 5, 2013 Sure thing, I'll get it to ya tomorrow, I gotta rewire the big red button that releases the hatch... I was digging through the old speaker setup they put in the car... (which good god i dont even know how they got it to work) and apparently the power switch for the hatch release was soldered into the speaker power line.
