Any ideas??? | Nice, as for embeding, just cut and paste the embed'd code, highlight it and click on the "wrap youtube" tags button on the top of the message box. | | Last edited by cooljess76; 12-21-2009 at 11:38 PM.. | | |

You're right, I tried it and it does the same thing. There must be a problem in the code. | | | | |
I really need to do this on my Ti. Does the weatherstrip have an adhesive on it? It looks easy im going to have to do this next month. | | | | |
There is a short piece of adhesive at the rearmost portion, where the metal clip is. I really should have cleaned the corresponding area of the door, but I was in a hurry and forgot. I had just received the shipment and I went home at lunchtime to install it ... I don't normally wear a tie and cuff links when working on my cars. Nevertheless, it's firmly adhered ... so far. And if it doesn't last, it'll be that much easier to replace when I pay another $30 and re-replace it! There's a metal ridge that the grooved bottom of the strip fits onto. | | | | |
you dont get much easier to replace than doing it in a tie and cufflinks. thanks for the excellent how to. | | | | |

I got the package from Tischer BMW at work right before noon. I wanted to install it, so I drove home. If I took the time to change (then change back), I wouldn't have had time to film and install it. I installed a window regulator tonight ... THAT'S an old clothes job! | | | By Rich on 05-21-2010, 09:33 PM |
Thanks for the video. I've replaced mine and a few other seals today.
Just a note when I took the old seals off; at the end of the seal (the end with the adhesive but a the back of the door) there is a little metal hook. This had worn through the paint. I touched this up before installing the new seal. Its was only a tiny bit of rust so probably wouldn't cause any trouble. But I figure why not, didn't take long to sort out. | | | | |
whats the part# for the weather strip from inside the window? | | | |
