Rear Window rubber old and cracked ...

[eliems]

Anyone have any ideas about how to deal with the RT/10 rear window bottom rubber seal being old hard and cracked (looks serrated like a coarse saw blade).

Is this a weather strip you order and replace?

Do a search. Somebody did a great write up a while back including part numbers for a replacement rubber gasket. I was going to go that route, but I got lucky and found a local glass company that hooked me up with a whole window assembly for a great price. I saw the pictures of the ones they replaced the gaskets on and they looked like new.

Agree. There's an older post out there somewhere. I think its a 3M poduct maybe?? When in doubt, call JonB.

Thanks but none of the part numbers or links seem to work any more and I am not sure which product is best as several were mentioned.

Anyone have a link to the weather stripping they recommend?

Looks like Edge Grip Rubber Seals should do the trick ... have to take the window out and measure it

i went to home depot and got 3m self adhesive weather stripping. razor bladed the cracked old gasket "flappy" part and stuck down the new strip. works perfect, keeps out the water and looks clean and stock. the best part.. it cost me $3.98
