coullstar 0 Posted April 18, 2004 I noticed that my rain gutter thingyies are buggered. Wil this let water into places I dont want it too? Does anybody have a part number for these assuming you can replace them? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JimSTORM 0 Posted April 18, 2004 mine have just gone too, i dont think it is going to cause a water leak, well mine hasnt(yet) could do with getting hold of some new ones myself Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted April 18, 2004 You won't get any leaks from these as there's nothing under the strips, they just stick on with sticky backed tape... :? Kevhaywire did a "how to" on fitting new ones of these not long ago... 8) Check HERE for details... 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Phil K 0 Posted April 18, 2004 I have picked the perished rubber off mine to tidy them up a bit until I can afford to replace them... but I wonder if there is any point in replacing them if they don't cause leaks? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kvwloon 0 Posted April 18, 2004 As a temporary measure it is possible to just neatly trim off the perished bits the full length of the rubber. Doesn't look great, but at £30 up apiece new :!: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chris CORRADO 0 Posted April 19, 2004 what would this look like to fill/flush them.... coz they were only for roof racks nothing else..... and Henny, right they only stuck on not into the inside... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Both of mine had been like that for nearly two years now, as don't think worth lashing out for new ones, no problems. Recently replaced one from a scrappy, just waiting for another one to turn up whenever, maybe at Inters! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhatVR6 0 Posted April 20, 2004 just run a knife down it and cut off the raggy bits. that's what most people do. once they're gone, you'll never even know they'd been there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
