Title: Boot rubber Post by: pharlap51 on April 09, 2009, 07:01:55 AM Pardon my ignorance, does the boot rubber for an FC sedan get glued into the channel or just sit within it?
Any help appreciated. Title: Re: Boot rubber Post by: CraigA on April 09, 2009, 08:11:42 AM My car currently has a NOS boot rubber (fitted about two years ago) and its not glued.
Before that I had a Rares repro and it too wasn't glued. Both sit fine in the channel and don't leak. I'm pretty sure that they were glued from the factory but someone else will confirm. PS: The Rares rubber was a little harder and the boot took an effort to close. The NOS one is softer and the boot shuts great.
