Windscreen rubber available from renault at £65

and do you mean you need the rubber for the rear windows?

The rubber seals between the rear quarter lights and the body. Mine have shrunk!

don't fit new seals untill you've had your respray done

Engine bay sides he means ................ you can lead them to water

Double glazing rubber works a treat DO NOT BUY Renault ones they come too short.....Useless!!

you can lead them to water

Sadly Andy's too busy atm so I'm going to have to look elsewhere for now.

Philipo do you know the size and type of the rubbers?

Thanks Guys!

How quickly do you need the paint done? Might be worth waiting for Andy.

I'll put a sample of the rubber in question in your box i am sending you.

Why do you need it?

Mine was replaced when I cracked the windscreen (stone hit it). Basically Autoglass (or whoever it was at the time) said that on the age and construction of the car they had no chance of getting it out without damaging the rubber so a new one was required. Back order from Renault at the time but basically all covered by the insurance save for the 50 quid excess.

I might just have been lucky in who I took it to, but it was just the default windscreen replacement lot for the insurance co but they insisted it should be part of the repair.

Obviously they'd worked on GTAs before because they also wanted the car in overnight so that the bonded screen could cure for the required time and also that the screen was fitted when the car was on a perfectly flat surface.

So anyway there's my tuppence on the subject - see if it can be covered by the insurance.
