Any one found these new anyplace. My passenger side esp is leaking into the car. I got it to quit for now but I need new seals both the outer and the inners.

Yeah. Good luck with that. If you do manage to find them, they will be uber-expensive.

There is this guy with one rear door seal on eBay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/HONDA-ACCORD-86-89-REAR-DOOR-WEATHERSTRIP-72810-SE3-013-LX-LXI-DX-EXI-SEI-72850-/130593160362?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Year%3A1989%7CModel%3AAccord&hash=item1e67f57caa&vxp=mtr#ht_500wt_922

Is there some kind of universal weatherstrip you can use?

The only other thing I can say is keep an eye on eBay. New aftermarket suppliers have been sprouting up on there (a couple are selling new TEC distributors). As these cars become collector items, more will follow.

I haven't found anything available any where.

I did see some ebay stuff but it all look used to me.

Have you considered something like this? Kinda ghetto, but might work.

I also found this. Universal weatherstripping tops the list, but OE types are farther down.

When you start replacing weatherstripping, you're getting more into restoration than simple maintenance or upkeep. Using "restoration" in the Google queries seems to yield more useful results. Most of them are motorcycle related, however. I wish aftermarket support for Honda car restorations was better. You can back out the motorcycle hits by including "-motorcycles" as a keyword in the query.

Don't know if this is any help but it also has some restoration part options.

if you search vendors on thisoldhonda.org there used to be some that specialized in honda weather stripping, I don't think it's really as much about restoration as keeping water out of the car
