Rubce Posted November 22, 2023 Share Posted November 22, 2023 Hi All Which seals do people recommend for the horizontal seals on the front and rear door windows? Thanks in anticipation Bruce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard B Posted November 23, 2023 Share Posted November 23, 2023 I use Chris Witor. he did still have some O/S Front OE seals which have the indents for the original style clips. Unfortunately the others you get use different clips and are harder to fit, but still work. I have found these seals shrink over age, so make them as wide as possible when fitting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Bancroft Posted November 23, 2023 Share Posted November 23, 2023 My car has the repro, seals fitted, these don't have the indents and have gathered at the points that are clipped to the door skin. Thinking of buying TR6 seals asthey have the cut outs and cutting them down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard B Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 If they have the same profile, that a good idea. I'll investigate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubce Posted December 26, 2023 Author Share Posted December 26, 2023 (edited) After Tim's earlier suggestion, I purchased a pair of TR6 seals from Paddocks and fitted them to our Saloon today. The seals fitted a treat especially on the front door. For the rear you have to straighten out a short length of the curved section for it to be long enough. I'm pleased with the results. Thanks Tim.

Tim Bancroft Posted December 28, 2023 Share Posted December 28, 2023 Looks spot on. I am looking forward to seeing the car on a CT event in 2024. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Tim I suspect Mike Bradbury and I will be using it on the 2024 Coast to Coast. The 2024 Border Raider is also pretty much a nailed on certainty as my wife Su is very taken with driving the Saloon.
