outer window seals question
Have any of you guys replaced your outer door window seals? I got some at Carlisle a few years ago and I don't remember who from, and I finally got to that point on the 73. The ones I got don't look like the originals as they are rubber with no felt on them and the rubber is about a 1/2" wide. I installed one and since the rubber is so wide it forces the window to tilt in so far I can't even get the inside felt bumpers installed. I assume I got the wrong ones and was wondering who sells the correct ones for the 73. Thanks for any help. Craig :cheers:

I had bought and tried to install some 'like-factory-originals' and I had the same problem. I then went back and bought the 'real-factory-originals', installed them and had no problems whatsoever. That was a $30.00 lesson, buy only original parts for replacement.

Zip and Ecklers all sell the originals for more $. I also had the same problem with the cheap replacements. The friggin holes didn't even line up. The originals snapped in tight & went right on without a problem.
