Trying to gage need for these part #91453118510. These go on the roof and block water from comming in over the window. The part number is only for one side, but it would be both left and right.
I can do these without the plugs at about 22 a set, or plug at $17 each. If I have enough people that need these I'll make them.

Thanks,
Mark

If these are the ones mounted to the sides of the Top and the top of the window butts up to them, then I need these badly.

Mark,

I still don't know what you mean:


'with plugs' ... ((( or ))) ... 'without plugs'

The extrusion is the easy part, the end where the roof meets with the vertical targa seal on the roll bar is sealed, or "plugged" The OEM part uses a casting very similar to the vertical targa seal See Vertical targa seal
The big problem I ran into with these is that the ends actually have a compound miter, and both sides are different, to manufacturing these ends was a tedious process that takes some labor to do, and I didn't have enough time to do them all, so the first sets that were purchased I made with the ends "plugged" ad opted to just sell the extrusion to try to recover some of my costs.

This seal is different in that the cut is not compound and I can set up to do these faster. It will still take some time, but I will also sell the extrusion for those of you who can reuse your ends.

Hope this helps to answer some questions.

Mark,

I have been looking for those exact peices. I'm in for a set, PM me or let me know they are ready for shipping. I think I bought a set of window/sail seals( The rubber running vertcal on the targa bar I cut to fit) from you, they worked great.

Question?

when you roll up the window on the new seal. Where does the rubber go...

outide the rubber , inside the rubber, or is there a channel that the window is supposed to go up into?

reason for my question is that I got a set years back and half of it is inside and half of it is outide. this can also change depending on if the top was on befor the door was closed. dry.gif

These will have a lip on the outdie edge and the window will roll up into the seal, same profile as OEM.
Mikey914
Here's a profile for you.

I like the idea of being able to roll up the window into the seal, but what about when the window is all the way up and the door gets opened or shut? confused24.gif

I'll post you some pictures when I get them in next week.

Mike, I'm still in for whatever you come up with.

These are the same profile as factory. I didn't see the need to get too exotic here. The originals worked, so why not use the same basic shape.

I need these.

Here's pictures of the fitted pieces. you can see from the first picture how the seal allows the glass across the first lip and that's the first barrier, it also touches the back of the glass.

the original seals had a hole drilled into the extrusion for a screw that kept the extrusion from sliding around. This is a tight fit and I do not believe that it will be necessary. The parts is shown with a hand cut piece of rubber that's glued onto the extrusion. I'm actually having the ends water jet cut for a more presise fit and more finished look these will be done next week. I'm planning to start shipping these after the Thanksgiving weekend. I'll be contacting all this weekend to confirm orders.
I hope this answers some of the questions on how the seal will work. Unfortunately these will install like OEM, the outside is fitted into the track and the inside is pushed in 1/4" at a time. I used a butter knife, but if anyone has any better ideas of how the OEM seals would install easier I'm sure it would work on these also.
Thanks All.
