Can anyone advise where I can obtain the aluminium section required to fit fume seals to my PA Firewall.

Hi Graham
I made my own - not too difficult but requires a couple of simple to make tools, one to fold the section and the other to bend the section to go round the firewall. Let me know if you are interested in the details

Nick, re fixings for firewall alum seal sections.
Mine at strip had 4BA slotted round head set screws + nuts & washers (photo 1), but I believe the original fixings where 1/8" round headed alumnium rivets (photo 2) - whichever you use make sure they're long enough, particularly if you've made up a new firewall as modern thicknesses of the plywood interlayer will give a different overall thickness to original.

Hope this helps.

Bruce, your photos help me as I have virtually nothing of an original firewall left. Are the side panels to the footwells original or a PO's modification to keep draught off his feet?

Thank you Bruce, that is how I believed the section was fixed but appreciate the confirmation very much.
