16V KEV 0 Posted February 19, 2003 hope someone can help on this one !! my door / window strip is knackered so i thought 3ft of rubber cant be that dear !!!!! phoned my local vw dealer and they quoted me £49 each for pre 1991 & £148 each for 1991 onwards, all plus vat i asked them to re-check but got told that this was the correct price , surley this is a outrageous price and shouldnt be able to charge as much .. does anyone know any other suppliers of these rubbers ????????? :? :? :?

Banana Man 0 Posted February 19, 2003 Join the club mate! I tried to get one not so long ago, my mates at VAG wont sell me just the outer lower window strip, instead you have to buy the whole outer window seal with it which is why it's so damn expensive I haven't found anywhere else that you can buy them yet, and it's not wise to get one from a breakers as they have a metal strip inside them that bends and once it's bent thats it you've had it.

Banana Man 0 Posted February 20, 2003 Cant remember but as they will only sell it as one then I guess it would be one part number!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LowG 0 Posted May 6, 2003 i have a brand new window strip which I bought 4 months ago,its the driver side,i ordered the wrong side and because it was a special delivery they wouldnt return it and give me the right side,so im stuck with it at the moment. My passanger side still ahsnt got the strip since then :( iF anyone need the drivers side i could sell it cheaper as i need to get the other side,its not used still in the seal with recipt. if anyone wants it would do me a big favour as im stuck with it.
