spoke to the land rover dealer who now state these and the wing mirror arms are not bodywork but accessories so are not covered any longer...obviously when challenged as at time of purchase they were they offered to fit any replacements FOC but advised it costs more to respray than get new... so the search began....
They come with new gaskets that are self adhesive one side...

Window blocks and wing mirror arms are accessories. I’d like to see you pass an mot with either missing!! LR dealers really are atrocious.

Accessories?!!!! I would be apoplectic with rage if they had said that to me. I think that might take extracting the urine to new levels, even for a car dealership. 2007 110 TDCi Station Wagon XS

At least you won't be doing the job again a year later, like I had to when the approved body shop did mine.

What an absolute joke your dealer is?
Window blocks do look good now  |

If I were to start again, I'd just replace the originals on the day of purchase rather than wasting time talking to the dealer.

Do they have a slightly larger footprint at the top? It looks like they pinch down on the windscreen rubber?

My local dealer changed and sprayed my window blocks just over a year ago under warranty as paint was bubbling.so can’t understand why yours said no.

It looks like you've got a bit of corrosion by the nearside windscreen block on the bulkhead. If it is I would sort it out now.
