What's the go with a VT window seal? Anyone got any pics? Any mods needed? My plastic trim things that go on the sides of the window are stuffed.

The only mod needed for a VT style window seal is to fill the oval holes in the roof skin at the top of the windscreen trims. Probably not the sort of thing you would do unless you were painting around the windscreen though, as the new style seals don't cover as much around the screen as the old plastic moulds do.

lets us just hope it never returns but the one thing that cuases rust is that black strip that holds the roof lining
