oh what a nissan feeling! Posted May 30, 2006 Report Posted May 30, 2006 I have spent a bit of time trying to find some new rear door rubbers (weatherseal strip) for the KE30 and were really unsuccessful. I located front ones at clark rubber quite easily at for $50 each, but found i could only get rear door rubbers as a 'buy by the metre' type setup, which would have to look a bit ugly once fitted. So i went to my mate corollaandy's place to see what i could find, and took home a pair off a ke70 which seem to be MUCH EASIER TO FIND in overrated condition. When i got home i found the only difference in the rubbers is the small locator holes for the clips, they are actually the perfect length. So with a small drill bit and a cordless, it took 5 minutes to redrill the rubbers, and i have almost new door rubbers. :P Quote
JiP Posted May 31, 2006 Report Posted May 31, 2006 (edited) :P -So KE70 window rubbers are the same as KE30/KE55 ones?? I was the wreckers today and was actually stairing at a KE70's doors thinks that they could be the same size as a KE30's/KE55's. If they are that would be great cause there are mountains on KE70's around and I need new window rubbers too. Jon. Edited May 31, 2006 by JiP_01 Quote
Trent-KE30 Posted May 31, 2006 Report Posted May 31, 2006 Did you try rarespares? thats where i get all my corolla rubbers from, i got a rear window and boot rubber from them for my KE30 Quote
Dyzza Posted June 1, 2006 Report Posted June 1, 2006 man that's not the point ... he didn't need to try rarespares, he improvised :P dyzza Quote
Tiger Posted June 1, 2006 Report Posted June 1, 2006 Which is commendable. And therefore... proving "custom rubber bits" :S Nice work, dude :P But for those that are fussy on original spec components... Stick to RareSpares for newer rolla rubber Quote
