QUATER LIGHT RUBBER

Post by PAULJ »

Hi all, I tried to change my quater light rubbers with new ones from BMM.
The thing is, they don't seem to follow the shape of the quater light. There is a gap between the front of the quater light and the rubber. As a result the front triangle trim wont fit. Am I missing a trick or are they badly made. Has anyone else had this problem.
Thanks

I changed mine with parts from Bully and had no problems - There is a gap in the rubber which the triangle piece covers - Can you post a pic as I think I may be mis-interpretting your problem....?

i have used baines and they fit as per original

never bought from birmingham mm so can not comment really

i have had them from esm and they were ok as per original

certainly send them back and tell them they are not fit for the purpose
they may be the cheaper imports
i have a screen rubber that is a cheap import and it leeks like a seive

going to change later when funds allow
