Just be aware they donīt fit the "old style" Entreq stainless door sills (if you already have them). However, the MY12 Entreq sills have no rubber lip and can be fitted with the new door seals (hope that makes sense
 )
Cheers, Matt Tell someone you love them today because life is short. But shout it at them in German because life is also terrifying and confusing... |

Thanks Bob - from reading the previous post I can't quite make out the part numbers for the new seals for the front doors on a 90 - any idea?
Also, did you notice a difference in noise at all? |

90 fronts are the same as the 110 fronts so you need two Front LR029309 (not handed).
Certainly quieter and as BPman said, less water ingress

^^ what BPman said. Drill out the rivets holding the old strip, then check the position of the new fir tree clips against the existing holes. You may have to drill one or two new holes and the existing ones need enlarging by about 1mm. Two new holes it the front and rear upright and thats it. Remember to treat the holes to stop rust, it is a steel frame, and I also treated the inside of the doors with waxoyl.
Word of warning - waxoyl WILL deform the new seals (I've got the t shirt  ) so probably better off using Dinitrol.

^^ yep, what Bob said, allow yourself at least 40mins per door, take off the door card, drill out the rivets, carefully remove the foam, spray around with dinitrol, allow to dry and pop the new rubber on !
