Window seal for non factory windows
Is it possible to get window seals that are one single piece, ie a single unbroken loop of seal ?
I have an autosleeper vt20 and looking to replace the side window seals. The ones in at the mo are shot and have black goop joining the gap where the seal is joined.

Re: Window seal for non factory windows
never had an issue with the join and "goop" as if cut and fitted correctly they are fine ,what folks often do is cut to fit and dont oversize them , next they cut with a stanley knife at best followed by kitchen scissors then a steak knife and .....,
use a cheap poly pipe cutter £6 ish
oh and post a picky of the join as is please

Re: Window seal for non factory windows
First of all make sure you have the right seals the main thing to check is the the web against the old ones if the web is to big you may never get it in at all the web is the little peace of rubber that goes between the bottom of the glass and the bodywork

Hello!
I also have a VT20 and need to change the rear window seals. I believe the previous owner had it resprayed and replaced the original ones with generic seals.
The issue now is that, there's a gap between the glass and the car panel, from the inside of the window. I suppose the correct seal would cover that, but I am not sure which one to choose.
Which ones did you get?
I was thinking of getting the ones available from Justkampers but they seem a bit overpriced and I am not sure if they are what I am looking for.

I think I got the smallest ones the WR62 but it looks a bit big where the rubber sits on the window frame but maybe the filler strip closes it to fit not fitted yet not putting them in till I have resprayed I think reason yours and mine has a gap between the window and inner panel is because they started out life as a transporter van then mine was converted by leisure drive into a camper and yours was converted by who ever makes the vt20

I think Mike is trying to tell you to buy the correct seals from him.
