Ivor My vote would be for the upper picture with the thin part of that seal tucked into the fuzzy door seal. Stan Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PILKIE Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 I thought the windscreen pillar 'P' seal only went on the pillar itself? Its for the door window to wind up and seal onto!! It has on all the cars ive seen! The moss/rimmers parts books say its a windscreen pillar seal!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pogo Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 I bought my windscreen pillar seals from Carl at TR Trader and he advised me to leave them longer than the pillar and flick them out slightly (as to allow any water to drain away from the body.

88V8 Posted March 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 Initially I thought the top one, then I thought in the bottom position it might keep water off the light switch and the hinges. Perhaps I should start a poll Ivor Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It has on all the cars ive seen! The moss/rimmers parts books say its a windscreen pillar seal!! Agree; it is the 'P' screen frame seal & I've only ever seen it atached to the screen frame but can se the merit of leaving it protruding about an inch or so below.

saffrontr Posted March 19, 2008 Report Share Posted March 19, 2008 Ivor, I agree with Dave, the lower position is the correct one. Pretty sure it is illustrated in one of the sketches in the workshop manual and I certainly have factory photos showing it in as per the lower image.
