Hi
Who supplies the best rear window rubbers for Australian minis
I have heard that some are not the best to use as the rubber is not up to standard or don't fit correct.
Regards.

I have used both Karcraft's and Mini King's front and rear rubbers in the past, with no problems.

I feel I should point out that sometimes when people fit these and they have not done it before, They do not fit the rubber to the body correctly and then make adjustments to the rubber that they should not have ,

Hi John
Sorry to hear about your loss of a great mate and true mini driver of his time.
Thanks for the info but this is not the case. looks good but not good enough. I want to up the standard so thought I'd ask before I spent more dollars.
Any luck with the boot lid liner screws and cup washers. No luck with the postman at my end.

Regards Peter.
