I got some seals from yesterford, but they get them from rare spares.  Funny thing is they are cheaper than getting them from rare spares.  I suspect that who ever you get them from will get them from the same supplier and most likely made in china.

the set i got for the tc i got from spectrum. bit pricey but did the job well. although windscreen rubbers came in a rare spares packet.

the set i got for the new td i got off ebay for cheap. dunno how they fit yet. we'll see.

btw they dont shrink, they settle. dont fit the finished cut end last. cut it a couple of inches too long, fit the cut end and use a nylon or rubber hammer to feed the rest of the seal in.
