Mercedes 1316 Custom Coach Body - Side Window Window Seals

Post by Rod B »

Hi All,
I am trying to establish if the rubber seal used on the side window fixed pane (under the sliding windows) is a one piece seal or is in two pieces, being the top horizontal piece with the second piece doing the sides and the bottom. I am hesitant to pull one out at this stage and am calling on those of you with far greater knowledge than I to afford me some advice. I have attached a photo of the windows in question.

For the lower fixed pane section off memory is a single rubber. you need to remove the slider windows then undo the screws that hold the window track in to be able to remove that glass

Thanks for all the info. I am still chasing a price on the rubbers.

On another matter but related to the windows, does anyone know of replacement windows that either slide or pushout for increased air flow? I am wanting them to fit the same cut out if possible. I know its a big ask as the existing windows have the angled sides. Its worth an ask to see what people have to say!
