Advice on Avondale Caravan Door Seal

Has anyone had found a supplier of the door seal on the 2007 Avondale



380/2 Dart caravan?

The door is unusual as the inside edge has a curve which pushes into the seal as the door closes. This is unlike most doors that have a flat surface that pushes onto the seal.



I've found that the Lunar Zenith 5 GTS caravan of the same year has an identical door.



The dealers and manufacturers aren't helpful and Avondale went out of business so I intend to Do It Myself!



Any suggestions will be appreciated.

There is a particularly good caravan dismantler in Wales, they are very helpful and knowledgeable. Not the cheapest, but they ensure you get the correct parts and in useable condition.

I have also bought seals for a caravan roof window, from a seal specialist on Ebay. They were not an exact match, but worked as well. They sent me free samples to choose what would work best. They were 1/4 of the manufactures replacement cost for the seal. I wasn't keen to buy OEM, because they had suffered UV deterioration anyway.
