Door Seals

I have been working on finding the optimum door seals for my (new to me Landy). I tried both original and OEM door seals and found the original far superior.

One thing that wasn't was the bottom seal. Which was originally a piece of high density foam.

I found on Amazon a silicone rubber seal that works perfectly. It's been on a month now and makes such a huge difference in wind noise from doors and also water ingress. Here are a couple of images to show it in use.

I just thought I would share.

Thanks for sharing this - I don’t suppose you have a link to the seal for the door bottoms do you?
Since my Puma was soundproofed, carpeted and new thresholds added I’ve started suffering from wet footwells, so now looking at options to try.
Much appreciated,
Matt

2002 Defender 110 Td5 DCPU Chawton White

Thanks very much! Looks like quality item (compared to the consumer stuff at B&Q). Size 14x12 correct?

Seal

Hi,

Yes, 14 * 12.

I also used degreaser from Toolstation (WD40 family) and ISO Propenal to clean the sill before I stuck it down. Clean and clean again and then it sticks perfectly.

It's going to come off eventually, but 6m should be enough to do all the doors twice.

I also just ordered the smaller version for the rear door, and will report back when its been tested.
