Back window rubber....

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

Posted by: Santo

I've seen many of the pics of all your cars and you don't have that messy look that my back window rubber has... it's all wrinkled... what do you guys do to make it look neat like in your pics?

if it is soft enough, just tuck it into the channel. Lift the outer lip up, and roll it down and inward, tucking it into the channel between the glass and the body.

The seal along the roof of my window was so bad, that i trimmed it off(with guidence from Chris).

I then ran a clean seam of black permatex to ensure proper drainage, and no leaky.

We all have that problem - BlackIce just gave you one way to deal with it. Another way some have dealt with it is to carefully trim it off. I have mine tucked.

I'm going to try hot glue on mine, I have a vinyl top so I should get good adhesion.
