  1. Whilst a GnC I bowt some new indicator seals cos i seem to be getting a bit of water behind mine. My old ones arnt perished just bit flat , before i take everything off n fit the new AM ones does anyone know if they work ok or would i be better off getting new boxes n lenses complete?? Any tips ??

    I replaced a front one a while back and it's been fine. Certainly the old one was a bit on the flat side :(

    I got new seals and to be fair it didn't make a blind bit of difference !

  4. Theres a guy on ebay that sells the original german style seals
    The repro indicator housings have a poor reflector in them

  5. The seals I bought were fine, if they're the proper type. You need to drill the rivets out of the housing to fit them.

    The repro indicator housings are Marmitee.

  6. Do the old sunroof fitters trick to stop water ingress....wipe both sides of the seal with vaseline before you fit them
