Right lads
them chrome window seals that always seem to go milky after the cheap TFR has eaten away at them over time,
Today i got into the mode of replacing them, well one of them to start with, Now i had to buy a whole seal unit as we broke the old one taking it off for the painting of the rear door, So a new one was fitted by taking the door card off, the window frame and it was a pain up the bum hole,
BUT after looking at the taken off bit and wondering how it was all put together i found out that the chrome part just literally clip's on with some great ease,
here are some photos of the old unit as i predicated on it,
I will be doing this job to a strip whilst on the car tomorrow and will take and upload more photos of the said action!
Peel back the old edge, bends real easy with fingers!
Flat nose screwdriver down the 1st bit to get it going,
then the rest will just peel off with ease, dont worry about bending it as its being replaced.
off she blows!
the bare edge of the seal.
just clip on the top bit 1st along the whole edge with the new part.
press and clip in a uniformed fashion along the edge!
and Bingo the new strip is installed!
and all back on again!
