hi guys i took the roll bar cover off today and when i removed the rear window the seals where only half attached.well you have the large rubber surround but in front of that there seems to be a round rubber seal glued (not very well)to the cabin side and it looks like they may have been re glued at some time(i took some pics but don't know how to post them). is this normal or has it been bodged . if its knackered can i just get a new seal or is it better ot go for something like the carbonate one on elise parts.


Also don't you just hate couriers!!! my hard top( elise parts) came today only to find it has been damaged in transit. the box was well beaten up and the guy had the nerve to suggest it was insuficently packaged.

Mine was the same when I bought it from a main dealer. I asked them to fix it before I took delivery of the car of which they did by sticking it on with sealant. No surprise that it came loose within a few days. I took the seal off completely and removed all the old glue/sealant and stuck it back on with evostick which seems to have done the job.

I removed mine last summer to find it had pulled loose at the corners, removed the old glue and re-attached with evo stic one corner at a time. Jobs a good un.
