Sliding door - rear 'hinge' seal

[garyd]

On the sliding door, where the rear, waist level, hinge/roller/bracket slots into the door and bolts on I believe there should be a seal of some type.

Does anyone know what form it takes and it they are available, still, please?

thanks

some of them have a foam type seal but over time it breaks up

[garyd]

My dealer tells me that the part number Cruz provided is no longer available. I shall see what i can do with a strip of closed-cell insulation foam.

thanks

Sorry, my other parts system does indeed say it went NLA on 01/06/2011

If it helps I found this picture of what it looks like using google

Thanks for picture, Cruz. I had gotr the impression it was something like thatr from the parts fiche picture.

I have cut a small strip of close cell foam and managed to poke it into the gap on the outside of the hinge. The inside gap is very small - too small to get anything much into - I shall leave that.

cheers
