#1 Window frame ‘T’ seals - orientation?

Post by rswaffie » Sun Aug 05, 2018 5:23 pm

Hi All,
I have the ‘T’ seals the fit along the top and forward face of the windo frame. The seal flange is off-set from centre so it looks like it should be fitted one way only!
Which way should it go? When closed, should it seal against the body at X or Y below?

Hi Richard,

The seal sits with the curve facing outwards, away from the car; 'Y' is to the outside.
