top of the door seal

Post by james butler »

the plastic seals on the top of the door frame both sides of my rocco are coming away and could really do with replacing them.
i saw this stuff https://www.carbuildersolutions.com/uk/ ... -per-metre
and was thinking if i stuck it ontop of the door shut then it will close up nice and tight between the door and frame.

what do you guys think?

i was led to believe they stop water getting in the top of the doors when traveling at speed in the rain.
but ive got no idea really, just would be nice to replace them as they must be there for a reason
