Outer Window seal from woolies order - anyone want to save..

Post by Corranga » Tue Jan 12, 2010 4:06 pm

...some postage.

Pikey stylee...

I'm going to order some of the Woolies S1 outer window seal style stuff.

The outer seal is identified on SELOC/here as very similar to the first seal on here:
Wollies window seal - http://www.woolies-trim.co.uk/c-166-weatherstrip.aspx

Pic of the alternate seal being used, attached with sticky velcro I think! - http://forums.seloc.org/viewthread.php? ... pid3900542
I believe the woolies seal is slightly smaller so they used sticky velcro to lift it towards the window or something...

And instructions on the process (note instructions are for regular expensive Lotus seal I reckon, so you'll have to be imaginative when fixing the alternative)
Door glass seals glass refitting - http://www.midlandslotus.co.uk/wiki/ind ... al_rubbers

It's priced by the metre, and I'd assume that 1 metre per door is sufficient. Postage is stupidly expensive though (nearly the same price as the actual seal) so I was wondering if anyone was needing any for cost + an even cut of the postage?

Delivery wise, we can use the SE pony express / it could be collected from Dundee or probably my dad in Edinburgh.

I'll probably order tomorrow (Wednesday) evening so let me know by then.

I'm not sure if it'll do an s2 to be honest, never really looked at an s2 outer seal.

Probably should have posted prices...

Woolies charge £5.50 per metre, so 2m = 11 quid plus postage.

Postage was looking to be £9.60 (or 9.40 or something) for me. I'll just do 9.40 (or whatever it ends up as) divided by however many takers there is.
