  4. Hey Diddy..

    What's the new up right bit that goes between quarter light glass and drop glass called?

    What's the cost of the door rubber seal kit etc at the moment in the UK?

  5. Hi John,

    the complete seal kit for fixed quarterlight windows are about £80 per door from JK :-

    http://www.justkampers.com/shop/t2-cab-door-seal-kit-nearside-left-9-parts-j11594.html

    the upright is listed as 1/4 window bar for fixed window on VWHeritage .....but they are an eye watering £48 each !! :-

    as you will probably find out, if you need that your C frames will probably have rotted out too!! so you might be better to buy the upright and C frames in a bundle as it works out £2 cheaper :headscratch2:

    luckilly my bus came with the lot brand new (except the C frames) when I bought it

    ........hope that helps mate :)
     
  6. Thanks Mate...

    I'll view the Aus JK site now I have the part numbers etc..
