New Door Rubbers

[ChrisPap]

Hi All,

I'm just fitting be fit rubbers and was wondering if anyone knows the purpose of the 'tucked' sections at the bottom corners of the doors?

Draining Water, which runs down on the sealing.

They let rain drain out rather than in.....don't forget to do it or you will have damp inside the car.

Thanks guys!

Sorry to hijack. I haven't got this on mine. Whereabouts are they tucked in?

Thanks.

Along the bottom of each door seal. I have one at the bottom of the curve near the door closure and one at the bottom front near the hinge. Logically where water would pool. You can just tuck the seal under the grip with a dab of superglue. 2 min job.

Super will get that done.

The passenger door seal rubber on my T350 is out of shape and gets trapped by the window when closing the door.
I have been thinking about changing the rubber.
Where does the seal come from and is it difficult to fit?
Many thanks

6M of ETS58 for the door (+ 2M for the Hoop seal if you have a Tamora) 3M ETS59 for the boot seal on the Tamora. It was much cheaper than buying from the usual TVR parts suppliers last time I ordered some! Lengths might be different for the T350 so measure it first! If you are feeling tight go to a scrappers and ask for a mk1 Focus door seal.
