914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Window gasket or trim?

Posted by: chris914 Sep 15 2006, 02:34 PM

Is the trim along the edge of the front window and dash part of the window gasket? Mine is all cracked. Can it be replaced without taking anything apart. Also where can you buy it and what is the part number?

If you're talking about the large seal that runs along the top and down the sides of the windshield, it is currently unobtainium new.

Nope, it is unobtanium also. You must remove the windshield to replace it. It just hides the turn down of the vinyl on the dash deck.

What has anyone done to make it look better?

Is the front window and gasket still available new?

I didnt put one on my old car but my windshield was painted on the inside and served the same purpose the seal did.

What does it look like from the inside?

It wouldnt be a fair comparison as it is a getty dash on the inside, that and I dont own the car and cant take any pictures. But your inside view should still look good as long as your top vinyl is in good shape.

I replaced the padded stock one with one I got from Dr. Evil. It looks great except for the the cracked gasket along the window now. lol. I was thinking of using some black rtv.
