Where to buy hightop roof window seal

Post by 1_eyed_jim »

Found the leak to my hightop roof. It's the little windows on both sides which are letting water through the tired seals. Now looking at the seal it looks the same as the panel conversion window seals??? Taken a few pictures.....

Outside...

Inside (had to remove interior to find the leak)....

Otherside....

So do I just buy a window seal thought would normally be for say the sliding door?? Cut in 2 and seal? Seams too simple so just thought id check

Haha don't be like that :) before I messaged you this morning I was advised by a company that if my van was a panel conversion that I just needed a normal window seal cut up to fit these small windows and if my van was a factory conversion the seal would be fancy. That is why I thought it would be best to ask on here where to get them from and to make sure I was actually asking for the right thing! Anyway my head is well and truly hanging in shame :wink:
