Excella blue rubber strips

Am restoring an Excella II and the blue rubber strips that extend all around the bodywork need replacing. Can anyone tell me where to buy them. I am in the UK and don't expect to get them this side of the ocean but can generally arrange for direct shipping to the UK or via a U.S. friend. All advice gratefully received,
Geoff B.

Went working on my Excella 500, 1978. I found I could remove the old Blue Plastic Strip and reverse, then reinstall. Just missing the White Vinyl Pin Striping. I purchased a new Strip but I'm using the old one.
Best

My Dad did with his Argosy, except that the color was orange, not blue.

Ebay is the cheapest place I've found. I have bought some from Outdoors mart.

My wife and I are looking to replace the same blue trim on our 93 Excella. A quick search of OODM and Ebay proved fruitless. Does anyone have a link or a part number?

Thank you
Bryan

Try this link. http://stores.ebay.com/Keiths-RV-surplus He has 50' of 1" blue for $11.99 and ships worldwide. Probably has the other width also. My 86 has 2 different widths.

Blue strips

Many thanks for the advice, I bought 50' of the 1" strip for $11.99, rather better than the $1 a foot quoted at other suppliers. Where would we be without Air Forums!
