Thread: Defender Vent Seals? (PICS)

Duno Don't have that problem, Puma

The groove is there due to the flap pressing on it. The new ones are all flat.

Thanks Justin

Ive been doing a bit of research in the mean time and I think the series 3 Part MUC 4299 looks to be a better design.

Or well you live and learn just hope this stops sum of the water getting in .

I also got new vent seals Part JAE000030 and there also ment to be qenuine part but they have NITTO on the back of the piece you peal of to expose the sticky side.

Also my old vent seals have a grove but these dont.What do you guys think?







Cheers Aaron

Aaron, NITTO is the brand of the tape adhesive. You can buy insulation tape that's made by Nitto as well.
Nitto is like 3M just an adhesives company.

when i bought my 18 month old def 110 in 2000, the vent seals were partly falling off...typical

i replaced them with series ruber type....unfortunately like alot of things, the vents are made from thinner material and distort easier... the ruber is harder to compress...but till this day the seals are still in A1 condition...just the vents are a little bent and let a bit of fine air in on the highway, they dont leak, though the windscreen to bulk head and windscreen/bulkhead bolts do...

Thanks mate

I feel like a Idot ...

Or well thats something else I learnt today ..


Ill give these seals ago and see how long they last.

Aaron, are the new ones SIII o Defender ones? The series ones go on the lip of the vent (as in photo), but the Defender ones adhere to the vent flap.
