Keith Nock Posted June 4, 2021 Report Share Posted June 4, 2021 Where is the best place to buy a rear hatch glass rubber . I want the best quality one I can get .The one I fitted when I rebuilt the car cracked on one radius shortly after fitting and I have recently bought a better condition rear sundyne rear hatch glass and want to fit it .I am a little out of touch with suppliers Regards Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin Lindsay Posted June 4, 2021 Report Share Posted June 4, 2021 James Paddocks are £31.50, but no idea of fit or quality - I do like Paddocks tho, usually good stuff. Rimmers are £40 once VAT is added. MevSpares are selling it with the silver trim insert as a kit: http://www.mevspares.co.uk/REAR-WINDOW-RUBBER-SCREEN-SEAL-Triumph-GT6-Includes-Trim.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badwolf Posted June 4, 2021 Report Share Posted June 4, 2021 If you can match the profile COH Baines will probably have something. They might even make the ones that the usual suspects supply. https://coh-baines.co.uk/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badwolf Posted June 5, 2021 Report Share Posted June 5, 2021 I spent ages earlier in the year trying to match their profiles with the scraps of rubber left on my hardtop but still haven't taken the plunge and ordered it. I did get some lengths off a company on fleabay which looks ok, time will tell? The fleabay stuff probably came from Baines originally, who knows??

Pete Lewis Posted June 5, 2021 Report Share Posted June 5, 2021 C O Baines will send you free samples if you ask i had a local rep call round to see how the door seals were fitting ,think he was in the area but . it was supportive stuff you dont see much of these days pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrishawley Posted June 5, 2021 Report Share Posted June 5, 2021 Recently had a tailgate glass seal from Paddocks. Absolutely fine. It looks as though the outer face of the seal doesn't sit flat enough in the corners but checking against an unmnolested original that is in fact correct.

Keith Nock Posted June 5, 2021 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2021 Yes its the Glass to hatch rubber I need . I found a good match for the original hatch to body seal a few years ago at the NEC auto jumble as I took a sample of the original seal with me as it is off set, most of the suppliers sell one which isn't I have included the photo of the body to hatch seal Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
