Side Windows

Go Back

April 2024

Back in the garage after hibernation,  so with warmer temperatures we should have softer rubber seals to play with...

 Quick refurb of door handles.

Sand, prime, paint, wet flat, then new lock barrels!

 

The rear side windows were a simple fit but took a bit of pressure to get them to close for the first time against the new fat squidgy seals :)

 

The front windy windows on the other hand were a bit more reluctant and required a little discrete nibbling at various points on the seals to allow enough clearance to go up and down. Even with 'quite a lot' of silicone grease the action still feels heavy, but I hope that over time the seals will compress and learn their shape !
