Weather strips

Post by StraydoG »

Hey guys,

Just wondering is there any way to easily remove these from another car and any recommendations for adhesive for applying them to my car?

Thank yous!

You dont need to remove them that way.

Pull the rubber lining out from around the door that forms the seal with the window. Under there you'll see a steel channel screwed in all the way around the door sill. Unscrews all the screws, remove the steel channel with the weather strip intact, attached to it.
