330 GTC - rubber pad under door sill metal threshold

Post by Fasthound330 »

Does anyone know of any source for the thin rubber "pad" that is supposed to go under the door sill metal threshold? Picture attached. I have no idea how thick it is supposed to be? 2 or 3mm maybe? I could probably find a sheet the right thickness and cut a pad for each side if I had a clue about it’s thickness.

I've looked at quite a few 330 GTC's, and none of them have this rubber which I'm guessing has simply deteriorated after so many years and as refurbishment has been done, the pad isn’t replaced?. I have looked at a reportedly 100% original, low mileage 330 GTC and it also didn't have this rubber.

But, it should be there, so I'm looking for a source. Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Kevin

Hi Kevin,

The rubber is very thin, probably 2mm, and I have a rolls of rubber that I use to cut and fit. When I've found the original stuff under the sill, it's usually hardened and cracked.
