Hey All,

I've searched on here and google and can't seem to find anyone who supplys new window seal rubbers etc for these besides Nissan and at $297 for each side :shock: just for the window seal rubber ($400 steel, $120ish part that the window slides on) I'm not really into that.

Appreciate any help/info,

Grunta

Most people just replace them with a single piece of glass and a new rubber much cheaper. Youll struggle to find any that arent rusted out 2nd hand, may be worth a search on aussie sites, I recall a guy making some alloy ones up and offering them to forum members. Sorry cant remember site. :roll:

Yep they are pretty expensive if you want to stick with sliding windows. Good idea to go to 1 piece glass. If you can make up a template of the glass you want cut and take it to a glass company it will cost you alot less.

Hey Guys,

Yeah thats what I thought. I'll get a quote from our local glass guy and go from there. I've checked the Aussie sites and they're in a similar boat to us. I'm surprised someone hasn't done an alternative.

Thanks,
Grunta
