rear quarter window rubber seals

Post by timbo.ambo »

Hi all

I've been replacing all my perished door seals, window seals etc. I've hit a snag - I cant source new rear quarter window seals. Rare Spares don't have any - "back soon" is all they can offer. I rang and they need to replace a manufacturing tool so I'm told, and they don't have a date when they'll be available.

Someone suggested "Kingswood Country", but they don't seem to carry the part.

eBay doesn't list any at present.

Does anyone know where else I could try?

Cheers.

Tim (Grafton)

Hi Tim
Of all the door rubbers the rear quarters probably weather the years the best. I dare say I have a good pair I can send you if yours are gone. Will have s look if you like.
Cheers

Hi Clay.

Yes, my left rear one has 3 cracks / gaps, and my right one seems to have slipped inside along the bottom, but yes, at least they aren't completely falling to pieces like all my other rubbers.

If you do happen to have a decent pair I'd be very happy to buy them from you. If I get them changed then I can work on the channels, belts, door card etc. That should keep me out of mischief!

Haven't got to those rubbers yet Tim. Still worth a look?

Sorry about the long silence. Had a pretty good look well for a bloke anyway. Only found one good pair which I need to keep for when I eventually resurrect my old sedan. The ones in the doors I have are all cracked. Sorry
