Hi,
Could somebody help to confirm which side of the Cerbera door glass the brushing strip sits. I am thinking it goes on the interior side of the door glass and the rubber P seal goes on the outside keeping wet out .
Thanks Charles.

That's how I'd expect it to be, but mine are brush on the outside. When I get round to replacing them, I'd swap them round if possible, because it makes no sense as it is.

This thread may help you.

I've noticed same, & considered the same change - however, would that affect how the window moves to clear the top seal? As I recall it (car's away at the moment, so can't test it) the window moves out as it rises, then comes back in to seal - the brush allows a degree of movement, that perhaps rubber wouldn't allow?

Brushes are on the outside of the window glass on a 2003 model.
Changing it to the inside sounds like a great idea but may or may not work.

Correct as it is but it makes obviously no sense to have the seal inside. rolleyes
