    Station Wagon door lower seal

    I'm trying to get my Dormobile ready for Cooma.
    The lower door seal had decomposed so I removed it some time ago, I'm sure I took a photo but now can't find it !
    If someone could post a picture I can try to get the seal from a local rubber supplier.


    Thanks,

    Couldn't find a decent picture but looks like a 'P' seal, if so I can source locally.

    Just realised.....I'll have a look at the Defender tonight it probably didn't change over the years !

    I rececently bit the bullet and purchased genuine seals for the doors including the sill sections. On trying the sill section (loosely) and the hinged end of the front door, I found it impossible to shut the door This is really disappointing especially when you consider the cost.

    Needless to say I've put in a complaint and will be getting a refund. Next problem now is trying to source a replacement rubber seal

    For the bottom I'm copying what what's on my Defender.
    900mm of P seal cost $6 from a local rubber supplier.

    The other seals I'll be making, I've sourced the seal material and also steel for the internal strip plus rivets and a rivet squeezer.
    Marking out & punching the holes in the strip will be fun.
    Not sure about the top seal which curves at each end

    A few seal on mine have been replaced but Sikaflex'd in place so I have to mechanically remove the Sikaflex !
