I would buy new rubber. Available by the metre from rubber places, apart from Mini shops. Same stuff as fits Falcon XD. :wink:

It comes with the black `pinchweld' attached, you just push that onto the body flange. :wink:

Sounds like yours has come off the pinchweld bit. :lol:

Yep I got some XD door rubber a while back from Grippy Rubber, it fitted windup doors fine. They were in Rydalmere but have recently moved to 28 Vore St, Silverwater.

But if anyone has an 850 with sliders, you will need a narrower one.
As I found out when I once imported Mk1 rubbers from UK, they didn't seal my windup doors. :cry:

Spectrum is in the Dunheved estate, north west side of st marys.
One of the benefits of going there is they generally know what rubber fit what car (on computer database) and if you look closely in clark rubber, the boxes usually have spectrum rubber on them - what does that tell you? :wink:

American Auto Parts also carry a fair range of rubbers. :wink:
