Rubber window seals

pannel van rubber window seal

hi. read the bit about the pannel van windows, great thanks. my 1973 camper is an ex pannel van, with rubber inserts, am i right to think that you put the rubber to the van and not around the window first (as you would doing a windscreen) i have the rubber and the beading s you say in your report.

best regards

Spud.

Hi Spud,

The two vans I've been involved in putting windows in......well, ok, my boyfriend put them in and I held things!!  Yes, he put the rubber onto the hole in the van first and then slotted the glass in.  There is usually a little shoving required but not too much pressure as there should be some leeway before the beading goes in.  Then he put the beading round and lastly the sealant.  I would guess this will be the same for yours.  Good luck
