Title: FC Boot Seal? Post by: Steve Christie on May 06, 2000, 12:00:00 PM I have bought 2 different boot seals for my FC, and neither of them have fitted. If any-one knows where l could by a correct boot seal, (and both front quater vert seals) l would appreciate if they could let me know. Thanks hotfc@iprimus.com.au

They always seem to fit around the top or along the bottom, but rarely both. The rubber can be made to fit either way up, and neither seems to produce a perfect seal.
At the last FE-FC Nationals I did see one that fitted perfectly, and I believe the secret was cutting and shutting the rubber so that it was the right way up to produce a good seal along each edge. I think the trick was to reverse the part that runs along the base of the boot-lid. Hey, if you've got two anyway, it's worth a try! Hope that helps. |
