SupraHuman Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 Is it possible to remove the rubber window seal and replace it without having to remove the glass? I'm talking the rubber around the wind screen and hatch glass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L18msy Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 You would be lucky to fit the new one back in place as the window sealer squeezes out and holds the trim down as well.When putting the seal back in it wont sit in properly due to the sealer poking out. Im in the middle of doing this just now had to get a mate in to cut the windows out as it is getting repainted just now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L18msy Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 Good choice at nearly £600 for a rear window sod the hammer action! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devan Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 I did it with a hammer head (no i didnt 'hammer' it in, i just used the heavy, large surface area to push it in). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pezzler Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 As mentioned; hammering a £600 window wasnt for me either Had my rear window seal fitted today - the seal cost me £48 from mr T in kidlington (Steve Manley), and a gut at my local auto winscreens fitted it for £40 He did say whilst I was there that its a "glass out" job I can dig out the part number for the seal if needed?
