cant figure out a part name

[KAL7467]

on the trunk where the rear hatch locks in on both sides near the bottom their are guides with stoppers in them on the bottom are rubber/wax pieces I say wax because mine are so shot they seem to be made of wax...does anyone know this part name or number and where to get it .I tried the z store and they dont have it in their online parts or I may not be looking for the right thing?thanks in advance I can get pics of teh exact part if that will help...

I am pretty sure that there is a drawing in the Body section of the FSM, of each area of the body with parts called out by name.

when I titled this picture, I called it a "Hatch alignment stopper" Not sure why but it sounds right....

OK sometimes it can be fun to play a guessing game but maybe this could be more useful.

I think Dave's Google search captures what Jamie is looking for. Jamie, are you going to attempt to bring your car to the club meeting? You could show me what you're talking about if you are.

Now I remember you mentioning the leaking. I didn't look at it closely enough to help figure out where the leak could originate.

Do any Series I owners out there have insights on stopping leaks in the hatches with the vents?

Yep, Jamie, the club meeting is tonight. I even drove the 260Z to work so I could drive it down to the meeting. If you're there, you can even see the seat belt install that we talked about before.
