EK VAN TAILGATE RUBBER placement

Post by matt71 »

hello everyone,
I've seen different placement for the rubbers on EK panel van rear tailgates in various photos - how were they originally installed at the factory?
Were they
a) on the body only around the entire opening ?
b) on the upper tailgate itself (and not on the corresponding upper part of the body) and on the lower part of the body?
c) on both upper and lower tailgates with no rubbers on the tailgate opening on the body at all?



any pics of original examples would be greatly appreciated

thanks!
Matt

Hi Matt
c). My van has a K-section deal on the upper gate which presses on to upper channel inner lip. The lower gate appears to have had rubber but not when I got it.

My camera is buggered atm so sorry no photos.

Cheers
Clay
