scoutman75 Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 i used the bd kit worked well other than waiting for it to compress a bit so the door would open and close smoothly after a couple of weeks all is good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armand Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 So is the BD kit different from the Precision kit? I desperately want new door seals but want to purchase something I know will work well. These Precision door seals suck ASS, they don't even seal the top of my door frame in some spots.

psdenno Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 I used the Precision door seals on mine in the past year and they fit perfectly. It took a couple days in the heat for them to compress enough for the doors to close easily, however. My only complaint was the price - which was quite a bit more than the generic rubber seals from Pep Boys et al. Dennis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lazeum Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 I had a source for cheap seals to adapt but I went with another route. I went to a junkyard, picked up some rubber seals from a Renault Twingo (not common in the states, I know . For those who don't know the car, it is a small sedan with a lot of round shapes, the weatherstrip does not have any corner. It makes it aesy to install. A Renault Twingo, there's over 1,000,000 of those here in France.... Moreover, it is thicker uncompressed and thinner when compressed => it should seal the door very well There's no need for glue neither, there is a metal rail with need to be clamped instead. I'm sure there're other car in the US that might fit... Dodge Neon or Minivan maybe. Pictures Left MSA Weatherstrip kit - Right the Twingo Weatherstrip Lenght is important too! The one I've got was longer than required, you just have to cut them to adjust. It cost me 20€ it fits perfect, it looks even better than the kit I had before. Oh and btw, I don't have to feeling the doors will fall apart each time I close them anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
