Sure there is:

If a Rabbit windshield seal is bigger & the same stuff, just get a rabbit
one, cut it down to be the right length and glue the ends back together
with special glue for rubber (forget the name of the stuff, but people
swear by it!)

Thas how they make most seals anyway, take a long extrusion & glue the
ends together with special glue.

if a rabbit one isn't long enough, try some audis from the same vintage??

take care,

Steve
