Tamora outer door window seal - which way?

[chris watton]

I ordered a metre of this:

to replace the seal on the passenger side window, but it is a different profile to what's already on there.

Does anyone know which way round it's supposed to go - does the P shape face the window?

Cheers

Yes the round hollow part of the P is against the window and the downstroke of the P is (somehow) attached to the door.
The linked part doesn't look exactly the same as mine. Mine has a bit of a lip that sits along the top of the door.

Can take piccies if that doesnt make sense.

Decided against it in the end, as it is totally the wrong shape, I realised once I had removed it.

This is now two different rubber strips I have bought and tried for the Tamora, both look nothing like what I have on mine. In both cases, the strip hasn't had the thickness to take into account the slight bowing out of the actual door at the centre top, and would allow rain water in.

hi chris,

please use always Rubber Care, this helps to keep them working for a longer time ;-)

i use this from liqui moly, 500ml bottle, enough forever.

Cheers, will try that.

I have changed every single rubber seal, except the outer door windows!
