Hello all! I am in the process of restoring a 2001 Wrangler Sport....and I need to locate some of those plastic sheet liners that sit between the door frame and the plastic door trim panel. Normally I can google like Sergey Brin, but I cannot find these watershields new, NOS, or aftermarket. Anyone got any ideas?
 
Think they have been discontinued for a while now. I would get some heavy mill plastic and use the old ones as a template, put them on with 3-M butyl strip caulk.
 
I ended up buying a roll of 12mil HDPE plastic and a ton of butyl strip caulk. If anyone later sees this and can't find these watershield/waterdams, PM me and I'll make you a pair!
 
ardweebno has become the major supplier of what he was looking for in case anyone else needs it.

I don't need any (now) but wish more stuff worked like this.

Pretty soon it will have to be this way. I bought a 2001 TJ thinking that it would be a fun fixer-up, but was shocked at how hard it is to find some parts. I'm shopping around for a 3D printer now to start crafting plastic parts that are stupid hard to find. Watch this space! :)

Any chance you're still able to make some? Is there a way to contact you? If not, do you remember where you bought the 12mil HDPE plastic ? Is it reinforced? Any help is appreciated. Don't hesitate to say "no." :)
 
Get some 55 gal heavy duty industrial garbage bags and use the old one as a template to cut out the shape.
