Front Door Weatherstrip: Service and Repair

Front Door

Door Trim, Convertible

Door seals are equipped at the factory with sealant, applied to door flange and then rolled on.

• During removal of the seal, sealant is distributed on interior side of seal and flanks are bent up easily. If the seal is re-installed, the sealing performance and proper seating are no longer guaranteed.

• For this reason, every completely removed seal must be replaced with a so-called "hammer-stroke seal".

• For partially removed seals, seal flanks must be pressed together before installation.
