Here are the dimensions from my 1986 CVX 18 windshield gasket. The gasket from the 78 CVX 18 is the same. On both gaskets the ends were crushed flat to fit under the side trim pieces. I wasn't about to cut the flat part off just to get an end view so here is my attempt at drawing. The picture does give a bit of perspective.

Total width   22/32 in.

Distance from edge of
 bulge to end 14/32 in.

Diameter of bulge  1/4 in.

Thickness of base material  1/16 in.

I'm getting ready to reset my CVX-20 windshield and planned to use the VW welting that Plugcheck recommended... it's very similar. However, if there is a source for the original gasket, please let me know.  Thanks!

Called "simolex" today and inquired on their P-shaped gaskets. They make to order, and the 1/4" bulb, 1/16" thickness, by 1" height (end of bulb to end of tail) P-shaped gasket is a standard size... that I think would work perfect to reset these windshields. Only problem is, they have a minimum order of 100' (they used to fill smaller orders but not any more as they sell and make over 10,000 products--too much to keep up with, etc.). He told me that 100' would be $225 + tax + shipping.

I only need roughly 8'.   DARN!

Well, lets see if we can get up to 100'.   at $2.50 a foot.(  $0.25 to cover tax, shipping and handling both from Mfgr and again to the member). I will take 16' that's a total of 24 feet so far.

Sounds great, let's keep it going... I'll bump my quantity up to 16'.  We're over half way there.

They also told me they can make the gasket in different densities, I'll call them today and see if I can get more information on that. Maybe they could send us a few samples.

Should I post this on the Glastron FB groups ?
Should be a few people looking for gaskets.

I'm confident we'll easily surpass 100'.   Glad this helps many of you as it does me.  Was unable to reach the rep today, left several messages. It's a Friday.  I'll try again early next week and confirm the details.  We may want to let this ride a while longer and see what the number gets up to? I don't mind ordering it... any recommendations on how to distribute?  There is a chance I'll be coming up to the meet (wanted to wait until it's confirmed but just throwing this out there) so, if they could manufacture and get it to me in the next few weeks I could just bring it with me.  Or if I'm unable to go, I could maybe ship it to someone who will be at meet?  That may be a long shot though... not sure what their turn around would be. Regardless, I don't mind getting the pieces out to everyone somehow if necessary.

What is your opinion on density... I thought he told me there are several options from soft -- firm density.  My initial thought would be for a more firm set up. I don't know if he can send me some samples, but that's what I was going to ask for today.

Can we send him a piece of some of the original and have them match it?
