Window rubbers

Post by Smiffo »

Hi all.

Long time no speaky..!!
After a consistent period of use of the van, and an MOT pass, it is time to look at some more work that needs doing.

I am getting some of the rust taken out, but need to know the best place to source window rubbers for a Holdsworth conversion.

Do I just get a generic pack of fixed length and cut it to size?
Last thing I need is to spend some cash on body work and end up with leaky windows....

Excellent. Does he sell it generally, or was it some he had spare that he let you have / buy?

I think he sells it all the time. In fact, I fitted some more rubber from him quite recently too, for a Komet conversion, good product both times too, no issues.

Drop him a pm :ok
