B-Pillar Seals
i contacted them and they advised this is the only ones they provide. The new seals are about 3/4" too long on the down leg into the door frame. Has anybody bought these from werk34 and had the same issue? if i screw the hold in screw in place the top seal is way off or if i put the top seal on the bar and get it nice and situated then the screw hole and bottom half of the seal wont fit!
Can anybody recommend a good reproduction seal place where the seals actually fit?
Below photo is when the flat top bit is situated correctly.
If i mount the screw and bottom hald of seal it fits ok but top is way out.
This is what you get with the screw above and bottom half of seal in place. The top half is way off.
i measured new seal vs old seal and the down leg into the door is 3/4" too long……….. new seal below
old seal below.

Also on those there is a corner piece that the screw goes in to that you are missing.
I would link the etka or cut and paste a photo, but they seem to be down at the moment.

Here are the corner pieces that I told you about.
I would see if they would send you new ones as that one doesn't fit. Maybe it was a wonky mold.

Also, after a lot of swearing and squeezing and all the rest, i have managed to get these on……..need to be glued down though but right now i have them fitted up and left everything closed (doors) so they can sort of take shape. Will leave them like that for a week or so and then glue em down.
