Anyone tried one of these windscreen seals

Recommended Posts

I believe that a honda civic seal is a better option, being very similar but as a single piece. Someone posted up about it recently as being used on Vortex.

I bought and fitted the ebay seal last week. Had a VERY slight leak - investigated to find the inevitable rust... I treated that, then skimmed with chemical metal, then primed and painted.

Looks spot on fitted, but ended up with sealant (I used soudal fixall) all over the car, seal, my hands (despite 2 pairs of gloves) fence, helpful neighbour etc etc (I hate sealant!)

 

I didn't remove the screen, so applied sealant then fitted the vertical plastice 1st, then the top bit (plenty of time to move stuff around on the wet sealant) then more sealant round the lot and then the long seal. I actually found the long seal a bit TOO long - ended up cutting an inch or so off 1 end.

 

Celulose thinners on a rag shifted the excess sealant off everything.
