I am replacing the frets on my Beolab 8000s and noticed that part of the black adhesive foam strip / seal that runs along the side edges is missing. Does anyone know where you can buy replacement foam strip?

Tried to google it but could only find foam / neoprene strips that are too large in width.

Many thanks in advance

I would recommend this thin but double sided tape.

It works like a seal, like the B&O seal strip.

Thanks Paul for adding this comment.

Is there any internet source for online ordering of this seal strip?

Do you know any source for ordering the white replacement foam for inside the BeoLab 8000 casing?

Thnx for sharing Beozip!
That's what I meant.

Though, I think the price is quite high. So I am looking for an alternative:

• A better priced offer.
• Or the same material for self-cutting.

If you know suggestions, please let me know.
