The results are wind noise at highway speed, rain water on the floor and under the rear seat (where it rusts the heater channels and floor pans), cold drafts in winter, and doors that rattle. A fresh seal fills the gap between door and body, so the doors close with a solid thunk and the cabin stays dry. New seals are thicker than the flattened originals, so the door will feel tight to close at first; that is normal and eases as the rubber settles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePull the old seal and scrape off old glue and rust; treat any rust before fitting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDry-fit the seal starting at the bottom center of the opening and work round both ways.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse a weatherstrip adhesive on the channel, and do not stretch the rubber into place.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeave the door shut overnight, then readjust the striker if the door is hard to latch.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it fit my 1972 Super Beetle?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, on the right door of a sedan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLeft or right — how do I tell?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is the right side, the passenger door on a US car.
