Weather strip on front window

Post by gavinbishopuk »

Hi, I think that the weather strips on the front of my 2 door have perished and are letting water into the car. How do I go about replacing them? I'm an idiot, so would really appreciate an idiots guide... Thank for your help!! :lol:

First you need 4 of these http://www.morrisminorspares.net/shop_item.php?ID=2307
Then you wind the window down all the way, looking at your replacement weather strips note how they fix to the car. Prise off the old ones with a plastic spatula and fit the new ones.
It's that simple :D

Thanks, Richard. It is the weather strips under the quarter lights that need replacing. I think that I have worked it out now. In my carelessness I have scratched off some of the paint though. any tips on touching up?!

Depending on the colour you can get touch up paints. Do you know the colour of yours? A picture may help us help you :D
