Hi all, has anyone got a spare/surplus piece say 40-50 cm long of the the cloth with the rubber underneath that fits around the inside of doors on a FC. Colour is the white-grey with flecks. My trim is tan/black . Am wanting to replace the damaged piece on the bottom where goes onto floor near bottom front door hinge ? Thanks in advance.

Jim , thanks a lot for your guidance, will do it as you recommend.

Thanks for prompt reply, yes it is coming in over the rubber or in between rubber and glass , so was thinking of pushing nozzle in as you suggested.

Hi all , what else holds in place the chrome strip at bottom of windscreen besides the two screws. I have water leaking into dashboard via one corner where I suspect more sealant needs to be "pushed in " under the good condition rubber seal . any suggestions please ? Curly
