Anybody out there got a line on where I can get two new water seals for our Espace? Renault cannot help, I have exhausted all outlets.
The type fitted to our car are made by Farnier Pennin with additional Clair Auto logo on the glass.
Any leads will be appreciated

If they have just gone hard then you could try some rubber restore. Even a smear with Vaseline Petroleum Jelly would help, but then maybe you have tried this.

I would guess that when Farnier Pennin were making sun roofs they would have bought in the seals from a specialist manufacturer of rubber seals and profiles. I was going to attach a catalogue but it's too large so try going to the web page below and use the link 'Profile Catalogue ~ Click to Download' in the centre of the page because it could be worth trying to match the profile of the seals fitted to your vehicle with any available in this manufacturer's 2013 catalogue.
It has the added benefit of all the available seals being dimensioned and so you can hopefully not only match the profile but also the size.
