There are a few little clips that fit into holes in the rubber and push into holes in the doorframe. Some parts of the seal push into channels in the rubber. For the remainder I used Evo-stik impact. They have stayed in place.

If it is then i believe that is the bolt that secures the down strut on the quarterlight windows - its not there to secure the seal rubber.
had to glue the door seals back on my van 2 yrs ago and i used the spray adhesive... but i didn't do a good job tbh.. bloody messy stuff... but where it did stick - it stuck well.
with regard to the clips - not sure - but i dont think so...

thanks skeeb
it was the person Im buying the seals off that mentioned the clips and when i pull the seal away from the door at the bottom there is some small holes that could hold clips, anyway ill order a few and post back.

I fitted my seals about a month ago thanks to fritz,make sure you get the correct tape and width other wise its more of a fiddle,
I managed to get some of ebay 9mm if I remeber.

thanks

Ordered Sikaflex? It's a polyurethane sealant, you should be able to buy it from stock at any motor factor. Tiger Seal is a comon brand, even Halfords stock that. Though the cheap version at my local factor is a third of the price...

do you have the item number, I searched ebay but could fine none
Keith, it may not be the best idea to use Sikaflex on door seals, the re fix tape is the sort of stuff they use in the factory and in re finishing.
I am a great supporter of the use of Sikaflex but not for this type of application..
