Door rubber seal

[new to this]

The channel that holds the rubber seal to the door can you buy that ? and does the channel go the hole length

of the bottom of the door or is there a gap in the middle

( passengers rear door )

Thanks Dave

And it's a solid piece, no gaps beyond a mm or two where sections meet.

Not around the bottom Dave, they are spot welded.

Thanks the PO pop riveted a peace of metal over the top of the bottom over the top of the original rust , that seal channel is small to spot weld

It sure is! And even more difficult to clean up after plug welding! (ask me how I know) I suspect the factory had needle fine spot weld tips for the job. In this one case, pop rivets may actually be the best solution, unless you fancy some VERY accurate drilling and plug weld them on from inside the door.

I plug welded them.... carefully!

Then I used my air cut off wheel with a thick 2mm cutoff disc to carefully grind down the weld



A pop rivet may be too proud to get the seal on, theyre tight!

I was thinking along the same lines , im going the machine the tips for the spot welder just not sure theres enough room to get the arm through the bottom of the door

Dave

[James467]

Yup, they're the ones

So glad the Dolomega doors are good enough not to need this treatment, I didn't enjoy my last time doing it!

Can you get door rubber seals ( passengers rear ) thats what im after damaged mine

Dave

[Carledo]

Dunno about new ones, I think some of the usual suspects sell it by the metre, you have to make the corners and glue them together yourself.

I may have a decent, usable used one for N/S/R door.
