I was looking at some shabby rubber bits on the striker plates and realized that I cannot find replacements....they only make universal oval plates now with no rubber bumper. Should I just convert to the oval , or mess with the bumber and fashion a suitable replacement bit. Was this design deemed useless ?
My guess: Either deemed useless, or... they found a way to save a little bit of money.
Unless you're going for a concours look, use them anyway?
Unless they're worn and won't work properly......
One of the bumpers are worn,,,,I will try to find a similar rubber strip replacement at the auto parts store .
