Re: [T3] brazilian door seals


is it worth it to spend 90-125 bucks on a german seal. is the quality
really worth it. 

I just did an article on door seals for the NONA newsletter last month.
It was how to article on making door seals out of 3 or 4 used seals that
you can pickup for very little money at junkyards (the junkyard owners
usually look at the seals and say either you can have'em or how bout 5
bucks). The original seals are made from 7 different extrusions and
glued together to make one seal. If you look carefully you can see these
seams.If you cut the old seals apart at the seams you can take the
better parts from 3 - 4 used seals, glue them back together and have an
almost new looking door seal for free to 5 dollars. My doors don't
whistle anymore either!
