Front Door Seal

Recommended Posts

This is an old topic, but not satisfactorily answered.  I am trying to install new Front Door Seals I received from ZCarSource.  These look much different from the MSA seals that were on there, and of course I can't remember what the original factory seals looked like.

Here is a photo of the front of door, and of the seal layed on top for reference.

I found some photos here (https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/39768-front-door-seal-pics/?do=findComment&comment=357725) from 11 years ago.  The replies conflicted - some said the rubber tabs tuck under, and others said they're glued on top.

Also, the smaller rubber seal that I show encircled in red might not belong on there at all.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

Robert

Here are pictures from a very original 1971 Z (VIN019769) that illustrate what the OE seals looked like.  Maybe they'll help you sort out your quandary...

The seal on there currently belongs on the back side window frame, not the front
