Window Rubber Replacement

[Dave Minett]

Recently the outer seal rubber at the top on both doors.
Seems a simple question or questions. Who can supply the seal, how is it attached to the door , looks like it's glued .and last of all how to remove and refit the glass ? Cheers

Dave,
Early cars had the rubber seal glued to the targa top. Later cars (1997 on?) had the seal mounted on an aluminium channel secured to the targa with c/sunk self tappers.
The rubber profile is probably available at TVR Parts & Racetech Direct, but can usually source identical profiles from trim suppliers. (Woolies, Seals+ direct).

I think he's referring to the rubber window seal on the door itself.

There's some with photos but I can't seem to find one. Depending on the age of the car, there could be 3 or 4 nuts to undo inside the door. Access is by removing the speakers and putting your whole arm in. Wear long sleeves!!

Take the time to do any other jobs whilst you have the panel off such as cleaning out the window channels etc.
It’s a pita to remove the door panel if you have large hands and arms, although it is easier when you know where the fixings are.
There were 3 fixings in mine along the lower edge.
