Morning all,

Got lots of SQL reporting to do today so thought I'd hang around here instead

On my S3, on the passenger side there is a piece of rubber going round the front wheel arch so that it makes a seal when the bonnet is closed. On the right, this rubber isn't present. Can I assume that it should be? If so, anyone know a source of a new one?

Ps. Someone asked me at the weekend, where the button to put the roof up was

Ok, OK, I'll go and do some work for someone

They did that on most cars, including my S2. I assume they must have had a problem with water ingress on the near side, but didn't do the same on the off side (to save money). I added the o/s seal and had no problems.
