Leaks and door seals
Posted: Thu Aug 01, 2019 12:27 pm
Can't face another winter of wet seats and feet so I'm trying to get various seals replaced while the weather's good.
Judging from other threads on the same subject I'm looking at an expensive boot seal from VW Heritage, and two really expensive door seals from Vintage Rubber in America.
VW Heritage do a special order on the door seals for £144, or the USA ones are $110. Does anyone have any experience of buying from Vintage Rubber? I'm just wondering whether the shipping and customs and weak pound mean they'll end up costing more than VW Heritage in the long run?
I'd be grateful for any advice please guys. My husband will cry when I tell him how much door seals cost
My sunroof leaked for years but has been permantly sealed for a year or so now (fingers crossed). I hoped that would solve all my problems but I've noticed my seatbelt always feels damp when I pull it out, and now the passenger one does as well. I found a couple of holes in the roof under the trim but mending those hasn't helped. The boot is definitely leaking so I guess water could be travelling forwards from there, but I wondered if there was any specific reason for wet seat belts that other people have tackled in the the past?
11 years of wet carpets! Enough is enough!
Thanks
