OPC in my opinion they should discount seals by about 15%

I've done this if your changing all the door seals go for the 968 version on the door outer it's much better. ....there are 12 seals 6 on each door I did all of them :?

Cheers guys. No aftermarket options?

how much did you pay for the 12 seals out of interest?

You might find what you want here www.sealsplusdirect.co.uk or www.sealsdirect.co.uk (same company).

I've just bought some from here to seal the back lights on my S2. Their catalogue is very extensive.

you should never put a petroleum based product on your rubber bits makes them degrade faster, it desolves the plastisizer in the rubber.

soak them in dash silicone spray and leave it for ages in fact if you take them right off i would suggest you put them into a big sealable plastic bag and spray the contents of the can in the bag and leave it for a few days so the rubber can re absorb the plastisizer.

the two products have almost the same chemical in them.

Gummi pflege is the other stuff to use
