trogers Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Hi all again, Just replaced rear floor with help from you guys (thanks again). Is removing and resealing the alpine lights an easy job or just a pain in the a$*. Can you buy new rubber seals anywhere. Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disco_al Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 the Rave cd's detail removing them IIRC, not really a PITA to do, but a bit time consuming. New seals are available from landrover (Bearmach do them as well) last time i checked they were about £25 each. mines had gaffa tape over the seals for nearly 12 months without a leak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adj1 Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Hi Troggers You could try Landranger in stockport They're on Sheffield Street. He usually has everything or can lay his hands on it ADJ1 Hi all again,Just replaced rear floor with help from you guys (thanks again).

TheRecklessEngineer Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 I've just sealed mine with a marine product called Sikaflex. About £10 per tube, fits a standard sealer gun and stick like sh** to a blanket - It also comes in black to match the seals. It will also go off when wet so no need to dry everything out first.

alex milton-haynes Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 sealed mine and the rear quarter windows with black silicone as the seals had cracked. looks ok if done neatly and worked so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rightfoot Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 When I replaced mine I bought the genuine seal from Land Rover (about £15 from memory), and then went to Autoglass and had a chat with the fitters - £5 and half an hour later all fitted. Much easier in their workshop - they warm the seal and have all the right tools that make it easier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
