Passed Mot with no problems (a little bit supprised), so went for a few days in the Lakes and did it rain, she ran fine (the car that is) but with the rain noticed leaking both sides at top of doors so think need to replace door rubbers does anyone know were these can be obtained from. I am sure there will be links on this site if someone can point me in the right direction. Cheers

It's one long rubber, goes up and over the screen wink


Probably available from one of the TVR specialists like David Gerald or a trim specialist, Woolies or Pheonix are both well repected and helpful.

Hello Neil, good to see a fellow toffee on the forum. I have been looking at replacing the window rubbers on my S3 lately, but this place does a wide variety of stuff that may be useful:

I believe the rubber is a common one used for trailer building, (or so I have been informed, by a chap who is in business building trailers) when he was looking at my car. He offered to supply me with enough to replace mine, when he delivers I will report back on here.
If it is correct, we could maybe get enough for others when required, although at the moment I have no idea of price... !
I will also see if he has stock of the other rubber seals that seem to be hard to find.

If its leaking at the tops of the doors - its the seals on the sides of the targa panels that are the issue. The profile of this is apparantly hard to come by, but others have suggested alternative profiles in the past - I'm also on the look out as mine is the same on the drivers side.
