Default Replacement seals and brackets

Where would you go and what kind of replacements would you buy to replace your existing seals. Also, if you would need brackets for an RSG mugen rep, where would you pick them up? All help is appreciated.

Oem hardtop hardware is the best. Not sure about the seals, but I'm sure GE clear silicone can work. Just tape the seals once you silicone and let dry for a day

OEM seals work for a Mugen top? And thanks for the silicone advice!

OEM seals do work for a Mugen top. OEM seals come installed on real Mugen tops.

You can order the brackets and seals from RSG.

OEM hardware and seals will need to be ordered from a Honda dealer.

Forbidden USA makes replica OEM hardware but I believe there's a wait time for them right now. You can also order brackets and seals from Forbidden USA.

RSG Themselves.. I went and bought a bunch of shit from pepboys that never worked well and eventually sucked it up and ordered a new set from RSG... I installed it right the this time though and everything has been fine..

3rd time is a charm I guess.

What do you mean you installed them right this time? I notice there is a little wiggle room of where the seals exactly adhere to the hardtop...It seems a little too inside and you will have a gap with the windows...a little too far outside and the window will hit the seal. How did you know where is best? Thanks!

you want the window pressed firmly against the seal when the door is closed, otherwise you will get wind noise
