Non Clubby windup window doors and sliding window doors fit in the same hole, so I presume the seals are the same. That is... if you are talking about the door seal, and not other rubbers...

What the difference? Anybody got a pic of how they differ? If i have that 'other' type can i cut some bits off so as to mimic the 850 rubbers? JC |

So why can you buy non 850 for nicks and the 850 are $50 more? Seals, rubbers, whatever. |

850 doors are different to wind up doors......the 850 seals are thicker than wind up window door seals I believe. |

I take it to mean ur talking about the seal that goes around that lip around the door aperture? If so, the 850 seal is a standalone rubber with a metal insert which just pushes onto that lip. the basic shape is like.. this--> UO... where the U is what fits onto the lip. The U is also the bit with the metal in it, while the O bit is hollow and is the actual seal part. BEWARE: These do not fit on australian 1964-on minis, they are too fat. The later type as fitted to Deluxe, K, Cooper S etc, consists of two parts. It is basically like a S shape, where one hook of the S into the lip, the other obviously faces outwards, and then a cover strip is put on top of the lip and is secured into that upwards facing part of the S. It sounds very complicated I know but i cant explain it any better!! Here is a pic of K style... hopefully u can understand. As for pricing, i can only guess that the difference is A) prob come from england, B) metal inserty thing. The later type (provided u have the cover strip) could just be bought by the length from any rubber seal supplier.

do a search for Spectrum Rubber at Dunheved NSW - they sell it in lengths cut off the roll because they make it themselves. should be dirt cheap from them |
