Side panel gasket for VOLKSWAGEN Combi Bay Window (08/1967-07/1979)

The sliding window seal for VW Combi is an essential component that seals the rear side sliding window. It prevents water, dust and cold air from entering the passenger compartment, while allowing the window to slide smoothly without excessive friction. The seal also protects the glass against vibration and shock.

The seal prevents rainwater, dust and wind from entering the vehicle interior. It maintains good thermal and acoustic insulation.

It also reduces friction when the sliding window is opened or closed. A seal in good condition allows the window to slide more easily.

The gasket protects the glass against shocks or vibrations that could damage the glass or fasteners. It also protects the bodywork from scratches caused by the glass rubbing against it.

Before installing the new gasket, thoroughly clean the area around the glass frame. Remove any dirt, rust or adhesive residue to ensure good adhesion of the new gasket.

After installation, open and close the sliding window to check that the seal allows smooth movement. Also check that there are no water leaks around the window.

As with all rubber seals, it's a good idea to check the condition of your sliding window seal regularly, and to replace it as soon as it shows signs of wear, cracking or deformation.

A good gasket is crucial to ensure a good seal. Opt for this gasket made from weather-resistant, high-quality materials to guarantee optimum longevity and performance.
