I have a 1930 Cabriolet and I need the small escutcheon that goes on the top end of the landau iron between the top material and the landau iron. Need both sides and I don't see them at the usual part stores. Any suggestions on a source would be appreciated.

A&L made them a long time ago; not sure they still do.

Is this what you need? Or the metal piece that goes on top of this?

You probably will need both the rubber spacer and the chrome plated cover that fits over the rubber spacer . Norm

I have the rubber seal I just need the escutcheon. I keep trying to call A&L but get no answer. Any other suggestions on getting these?

Call berts
Steve should know if they are available
1 800 321 1931

I see Joop posted A&L info. I think they are more irregular in
shop of late. I hear Alan is not there full time and some personnel retired.
Hard to find anyone these days that can/will meet the requirements and needs for a small run production shop.

As an update. A&L does not have this part. I purchased the escutcheon for the window crank for a later cabriolet. It fits quite well. I ground off the little tabs that would normally press into the upholstery. It stands off the top by about 1/8" so you can see some black. I think if I reshaped the rubber seal a bit it would fit perfect.
