    Rear door secondary seal

    I installed a secondary seal to prevent dust ingress through the rear door and I am pleased to report it works. Not sure of the longevity or the side effect yet.

    Sounds like a great idea. Is this a stock Land Rover item?

    I bought some from Clarke Rubber today. 15mm wide is the smallest they had. I couldn't shut the door. So, I obviously need to hunt around for a smaller profile.

    Use 8mm thick/10mm wide D-profile. You may have to adjust the striker plate a bit depending on how yours is. Fill a bit of Sikaflex at the join/cut ends and let it cure first IMHO
