Hi all,

Not exactly mechanical but a problem and not sure where else to post!

My Williams' rear windows were recently de-tinted. Passenger side went back on fine, but the drivers side leaked and no amount of adjustment would sort it.

MatBrown sent me a replacement seal but it is different to the one from my car: (mine is on right, the one from Mat on the left)

You can see that mine has square corners:

Spoke to Mat last night and he kindly sent over a picture of a fixed window seal but we don't think that this is right either. Here are a few of my defective seal back in the car:

Does anyone know what type of seal this is? Does anyone, by any chance, have one they don't want?

Any help or advice much appreciated. Don't really want to have to seal the window......

When that happened to me I ended up buying new ones from Renault as no matter how many I tried they would leak!

They're not that expensive.

Do Renault still do them? That's good news, cheers Daz.

Thanks for the confirmation Northy.
