Repro seals vs original 'best quality', anyone had any luck with budget options?

    Think I got a good quality engine hatch seal from C&C.

  2. If its anything like their sliding door seal chuck them it in the bin
     
  3. Cheapest option is to repair the old one - super glue is your friend. Drafts - wear a jumper, leaks have a cloth handy :)

  4. all I can say is that all my seals came from them. Everyone fitted well. Granted it was a while back and I know things change but they have a good reputation for selling good quality stuff. They also sell cheaper stuff but are more than happy to tell you which products fit well and which don't. Hence, give them a call.

    He knows about sliding doors. Wish I'd time to have him do mine when I dropped by.

  8. Me too. I bought a full set of seals from C&C, the better quality grey ones about 18 months back. They fit perfectly.
     
  9. I sat for hours on end scraping the overspray and various types of glue of my originals
    Few tears repaired with superglue and a good soaking in autoglym vinyl and rubber care and they came back almost good as new
