New Screen Seals

[Ste-V]

Hello all, I need new front and rear windscreen seals for my mk3 Capri. I have the name of a company on the tip of my tongue who sells them but I can't for the life of me remember, any ideas anyone?

 

Thanks, Steve.

East Kent trim?

 

My opinion, stay away. I'm sure I won't be the only one saying that.

Thanks for the reply, how come? Price or quality?

 

Any other suggestions then anyone other than eBay?

 

Thanks

Quality mate, had screen rubbers and chrome trims from them and the fit was shocking. I know there pattern parts but you would want them to fit properly.

 

This was about 4 years ago so the quality might be better now.

 

I ended up finding really good second hand ones and used them.

I've just fitted a complete set of rubbers from East Kent on my Mk1 Capri and was happy enough with the quality/fit of them. Although ive never used any others to compare em to.

Id like to update my previous comment, seals have been on about 5 weeks now, been driving the car most days for the last 2 weeks and the windscreen rubber is shite. seems to have 'shrunk' at both top corners and water pisses in. Im now on the look out for a genuine one, oh and you have to slam the doors and boot quite hard to get em to shut cos the seals are too thick/stiff. Not impressed with East Kent at all now.

Thanks for that, not going to bother with them!

the rear screan on a mk3 capri is bonded and will need it done by someone who knows what they are doing

I heard all the rubbers come from same place unless specially made. Ive had mk2 escort front rubber from everywhere an they all s**t must have had 11 sets now an the corners always wrong shape. 3 friends had same problem. East Kent wouldn't do anything about it after buying 3 from them and complaining! Then again my mate had a mk1 whole set an they were perfect.
