I have some that I replaced ~10-15 years ago and are still in very good condition. I just want them to look "new" and be more pliable if possible.

IIRC, Pat reported that some of the rubber seals in his car had deteriorated despite his treating them over the years.
Hate to put it this way, but maybe use something Pat DIDN'T use? And as weird as peanut butter sounds, for some reason I like that recurrent post more than the drill-the-holes-for-the-rear-foglight theme! hahahaha Paul |
