The monsoon weather has helped locate a couple of leaks (the others can wait) one of which appears to be due to a triangular section seal that should be at the front of the window being missing on the drivers side, the seal in question is glued to the inside edge of the mirror bracket thing and fills the void caused by the mirror bracket compressing the rubber seal further than the glass does.

Passenger side one is fitted, drivers side is AWOL - any ideas where to get this type of seal from ???

If it stops raining I'll take a picture frown



This is what I was referring to, on closer inspection it looks like this may have been added later, must work as the carpets much better in the passenger side Almost dry yikes

Simon,

I bought some of the triangular rubber from a supplier whose name I do not immediately recall.

I have some left. Drop me an e-mail with your address and I will send you a piece.
Alternatively if you are going to BBWF, I can take some there.
