Do you know how many metres of the rubber you needed for both doors? I would hate to be 10 cm short...

Run a piece of string around the existing door rubbers, then measure it, then add a bit for mistakes, cutting etc... Should be close.

I had 6120 mm (B) and 1440 (A) written in my notebook, I did get longer than that by about 100 mm IIRC

Out of curiosity, would any of the samples that were available be suitable for any other part of the car as in maybe the rear boot or front bonnet
seals?
Just a thought?

Went into our rubbber suppliers down here today.. a place called foamland.
They source their auto rubber from rare spares, and they have a seal that looks very similar to the gemini one, only instead of having the two little
lips on the round bit (technical terms here) it only has the one.
I don't think this should matter to much and i plan on using this stuff. Its about $11 a metre.
Just have to measure to see how much i need. Will keep you posted with how i go.

Get a small sample first and check in different positions around the door.

update
Had a chance to see if the bottom rubber is sealing or are you still trying to get her to stop first?
Looks great but will let you be the guinea pig first:P before I try.
Thanks Andrew
