Looks great, hope mine comes out as nice as that!

So why have you wrapped the door posts and upper rear panel? Or are you doing it two tone?

People have said that the windscreen seal isn't a good fit. Here's one example

https://club8090.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.p ... l#p7621123" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

And someone said the side window seals aren't much use either

https://club8090.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.p ... l#p7620122" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Best thing to do is to send Cyrus and Covkid a message asking them about the JK seals

If the answer you get is not favourable I would cut your losses and put all the seals on ebay because after spending all that time and money on a respray you want to keep it that way and have the van looking it's best

Then I'd buy replacements from http://www.volkswagenemporium.co.uk/type25parts.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; I think they even sell front and rear seals that have the fancy chrome insert if you ask

Front screen seal original -£30
Rear screen seal original -£25
Side window seal Panel Van conversion -£22 each
Side window seal original aperture - £30 each

If your van is a panel van conversion then http://www.sealsdirect.co.uk" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; have been recommended too for side window seals. You can get black or chrome inserts for them

If you are stuck just ask the question in technical :ok
