Hi All,

I'm getting some new seals, but the parts manual state both 3 and 4mm options for the windows in the roof .. Does anyone know what thinkness an 86 110 would be?

Cheers!

Fair point, but how do I measure them? they don't open.. and I can't tell by looking at them! (I'm talking about the curved ones in the roof..)

Well, I was about the say walk outside and measure them - then I saw this.

You didn't give enough info to start with. :p

Flagg, it will depend somewhat on whether or not you have original glass. OE glass is nearly always thicker than aftermarket replacements.

It 'should' be 5mm on a '86.

4mm was used from '87 on.
