Thanks, Serg.

I also ordered some Zircotec self adhesive heat shield, as I realised my rear number plate is just stuck on, not screwed, and with the new larger ACT box, it is very close to the inner surface of the exhaust heat shield..

yeah its double sided tape.

I got some of what SteveSPG suggested. But on my car they dont ermm... seal in the middle, fine at either end... its like my door is warped outward in the middle. There isn't a consistent gap end to end.
D or P get ripped Off by window going up and down because they are too tight on the ends. Next time I go there (managed to scalpel my finger last time) I'll mod the D or P to taper at the ends... its THE ONLY WAY, for me. Just pray for my fingers.
I had the same problem, the seal that Steve linked to, and I bought is no good. There is quite an open gap in the middle of the top of the door, so the seal doesn't seal!

I ripped off the new seal and re-stuck the old seal back. frown

Sure I saw them on the TVR parts website when I last looked.

Using the p type seal now. For me its better than D or the other non standard type. Its the only one that looks like it has a chance of occupying the same space as the glass at the corners and staying there.
