R32 Rubber Trim At Top Of Window Hole

[EliseViv]

Hello Fellas. The warmer weather has me preparing the car for a splash of renewed colour... and the Nissan boys certainly stretched their imagination with my colour being :"Blue silver effect!" Well I like the colour anyway :-)

But I have been looking at the rubber seals at the top of the windows. The rubber coated steel has had the rubber peel away (aged in the sun) and its about the only thing I cant rejuvinate. Where do I get this from... (Nissan OZ?)

Cheers

Same thing has happened to me! I'd like to know how to fix this, too!

Im guessng the only way to fix it to go see nissan australia and hand over your liver but if someone else knows some other way to do it i would definitly be interested. Need to fix mine as well.

hey are you talking about to out side? and at the top of the front window? mine are pretty bad and i had a guy come in to install my rear window with a new seal for $110.00 then i showed him the front of the car and he said that i didnt need to spend 150 to get the window taken out and replaced with a new seal all i needed to do was call him and he would cut the top part out and fill it up with this black stuff they use to seal the windows and he will smooth it out for me and make it look new.

What company?

OK fellas, Ill hunt up some prices/strategies. Im looking to remove the stianless inner part of the rubber and see if there is a way to recoat it or slide it inside some other moulding.

Ill keep the forum posted

Cheers

Hi King, I think we have our wires crossed, I actually mean the winding windows. There is a stainless strip with a thin rubber cover on it. Its probably possible to just paint it, but Ill have a closer look this weekend, remove it and see what work is required. But it pisses me off as the rest of the car interior is pretty much mint (Im a fussy old barstard), and this strip samcks me in the back of the eyeball every time I get in the car.

hi, this part is available from Nissan [Aus] but they may have to send to Japan if not in stock. I replaced mine a couple of years ago. expensive; includes door seals. good luck .
