Compartment Door Seal

I've been searching for a while for new compartment door seals for my 2017 Forest River Forester 3011 motorhome. They're a bit squished down after 4+ years and I'm getting some water inside the compartments.


FR will send me the part number, but that means a trip to the dealer who will attempt to order the part 37 times & I'll give up.


I checked with the usual suspects Steele Rubber, RV Parts Nation, SlideOutSeals.com, but they don't have the same profile.


The dimensions are approximately 1/2" x 5/8" and it's a self adhesive seal.



Has anyone found a suitable replacement for this?


I'm not sure if this is Forester-specific, so I'll post this in both forums.


Thanks!

I found similar weather stripping in 100 foot rolls from McMaster Carr. Working well after 2 years now.

Thanks for the suggestions! I had already sent a photo to Steele Rubber and no luck there.


I'll dig through the online McMaster Carr catalog to see if I can find a match.

Let us know if you were able to find the correct dimensions. I have a similar problem.
