Woolies Door Seals

Post by peterweston »

I have fitted the Woolies door seals and the passanger door panel keeps catching the rubber of the seal as it is larger than the standard Lotus fitting. Has anyone else had this problem.

Seems to be a bit of a known "issue" with the Woolies seals : http://www.lotusexcel.net/phpbb/viewtop ... c&start=15

Thanks Angus. Seems a well trodden path. Will look for some pucker seals. The other problem I have found is that you have to adjust the door catch forward to enable the door to shut without the door bouncing off the fat seal !!

I fitted a new door seal to the passenger door last week. Got it from SJ sports cars. He told me that no sealant would be necessary and he was right. A nice tight fit an was done in half an hour Cost £30.80 plus vat and postage for both doors.
