Hey guys, another question from Ben..

 

I have bought a new boot seal from Phils Rotaries and Fast Fours for my 20, my question is how do I fit it?

 

As in, like I obviously need to use some sort of adhesive ayy..

 

All help appreciated.

 

Cheers, Ben.

how much was the new seal if you don't mind me asking?

Yeah Ryan, was around $40 and $10 postage. off ebay.

 

Cheers, Ben.

It should push on like the original seal. :D

Hmm interesting...

 

One side is flat, which I'm guessing is the side that is supposed to be stuck down, while the other side is the 'seal'. :D

 

Cheers, Ben.

You have the wrong seal then dude.

 

The original seal clipped onto the lip that goes around the entrance into the boot space...

I have the same issue with mine. The cheap ones of ebay don't push on, they need seam sealer or something. But at under 1/2 the price I was quoted from scotts old rubber co in Oz (EDIT: I couldn't even get a winscreen rubber for the price I paid for a 5pc set!), I'll put up with it!

Use something like Tarzan Grip to hold it on :D

yea cheap ones need some sort of water proof silicon stuff..

 

expensive ones clip / press on like factory toyota seals..

Ahk Cheers Henry.

 

Meh the cheap price justifies the hassle.

 

Cheers, Ben.

Nah, not Tarzan Grip.

 

Selleys Gel Grip contact adhesive. Absolutely brilliant, I used it for my rear seal and it worked great.

I know a place where you can get a full rubber kit for your Toyota, though wont be cheap. Probably estimate $400-$700. My KE55 2 door hardtop will cost around $520 or so.

Who is it?

 

I want to get some rubbers to seal my bloody rear windows properly.

philbey, are you after rubbers for the pop out windows? If so, I was talking to an older gent with a beautiful restored ke16 a few years back at the All Toyota Day. He used some off the shelf windlacing (used around door openings) that came with a rubber attached for his rear pop out windows.

was looking to get this kit here for my KE25 coupe from Phils Rotary's

shit they're expensive for parts (from what we get in NZ) but Phil's is unfortunately about the only supplier for most of these products :S
