Door Seals

Following on my issue selecting the correct door seal, (See 228 in build log), I’ve been looking at what is available. The current design has a 15mm sealing bulb and I can get a smaller one with a 13mm sealing bulb, but I concerned even this will be too large. In its uncompressed state, the current seal is flush with the out edge of the spider in places, so I don’t think that 2mm smaller will be sufficient.

<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com<img src=" /><o:p></o:p>
Has anyone got any experience in using the following type of seal, as it look like it will compress more than a bulb seal?

Hi Ian
yes I've a similiar seal (if not the same) to the DX71 they offer. The DX71 is what other people have used and is apparently used on original cars, but I'm thinking about using the DX73 seal (on the same page)
Regards
Andy
