hard top seals
 

Hi I'm sure i saw a link about the best place to get hard top seals to seal the gap between the windows and roof on my MX250 but i can't find it ..... can anybody help please ...i have tried MX5 parts but they want £200 for them thanks

Andrias used the following on his, and he said it worked perfectly. A lot cheaper too!

Could find a hard top seal but I found a hard top sealion if that helps

Sorry, it has been a long day

Thanks WCA i could probably make a couple out of that !!

I use woolies trim - what profile is the seal you need?

its edge trim seal 17mm x 26mm as in the link above apparently......i thought woolies had gone bust ?

woolies trim - http://www.woolies-trim.co.uk/

not Woolworths :)

Thanks for the link , the plush and sponge type looks like it will do the job hope to get a sample off them .

I used these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2612985137...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT but I did try a few and were never happy so in the end I stepped the door frame out then cut the rubber down and stuck it on with silicone. I take some pics in the morning if you still at the build stage step it out I found it the only way to stop it leaking.:typing:

That's the best photo I've ever seen on this forum. Love the enigmatic smile

do you mean cut the return edge off and re-bond it making the gap smaller ?

no what I did was to fill the gap in by around 15mm and the glass over it so it looks as it was always there. sorry for got to do pics will add them late on tomoz

door seal
 

Attachment 2151 sorry for the delay its been manic, don't know if you can work it out from the pick. think of the L shape profile of the door frame and then add a square infill just in the corner to step it out. just need to put the trim back on and mine is all finsihed

thanks for the pics Andy, get what you meant now i will have a go ...glad yours i nearly finished I'm getting there slowly

Window seal gap
 

i should have done this job before going to paint but that would have been too easy
Attachment 2885
i marked around the closed window
Attachment 2886
then measured 10cm back and cut along that line
Attachment 2887
then the bit i cut of i refitted behind with tiger seal and countersunk rivets giving an edge to push the seal onto
Attachment 2888
then bent and fitted the rain gutter which also went on with tiger seal and countersunk rivets finished off with filler, primer, satin black then satin black laquer. I was dreading this job as my GTO was already painted but we got fed up getting wet every time it rained...Ned
