weatherstrip vs seals ? ie door seals ?

Featured Replies

hello all

i was wondering if anyone knew the difference between these seals vs weatherstrips** msa list both so do i need to get the seals along with the weatherstrips ? I installed the weatherstrip around both doors already and i am still getting a little leakage on the driver side so am i missing these door seals ?

thanks guys

peter

Hey Peter, can you tell exactly where your leak is? There are seals on the car body that seal the door when its closed. There are seals on the door above the door hinges. And there is a strip on the underside of the door. Some Z's had seals across the top of the stainless steel window frame.

Much luck!!

P.S. Do you have a catalog for either Motorsport or Victoria British? They show better pictures. Motorsport's website isnt too good. VB's site wont show anything.

much thanks again chris ** after washing my car ** i saw traces of water on the inside of my door on the driver side on the area near the window crank but i will watch this more closely next time i wash my car to see actually where it may be coming from**

thanks

Seal go betwen two fixed pieces, like windsheild & frame, 1/4 window & frame, fender & body. weatherstrips go betweeen moveable parts like doors & body, side window & frame.
