Just wondering if anyone knows of a reasonably priced source for some of the mk4 weather seals - ie. between the doors and the roof, window seals etc. as I'm getting some pretty major condensation and I've been quoted around $320 from Solitaire for just one seal where the window slides into the door. ( ie. so over $1200 for four of them alone :facepalm: )

Cheers.

I'll check on the web you should do the same,but to be honest genuine might be your only choice. Ill flick you done part numbers in the morning to make searching easier.

You can try ecs. Roughly $90 each. shipping might be a bit much but still ends up waaayyy cheaper.

Yes - they're the ones ... Apart from the dealer, all I've been able to turn up is second hand ones that are probably in a similar state to mine.

That's a good idea - I'd forgotten about ECS. (... well blocked them out of my mind over crazy shipping costs in the past, but will check them out.) Thanks.
