The Cruiser store contacted me on instagram with the following information below regarding the seals, this makes sense now and I really appreciate them reaching out, legends.

Wind the windows down and push the top of the window frame in its an old dealer trick to stop wind noise around the window frame

Surely there has to be a neater way hey Brother.

Such a great wealth of information. Wish I'd had that in 2019. I invested in the safari armax package and i recommend that unless one is towing all the time, better $ spent on rear axle width correction for handling.

You are the only KZreadrs with new V8. I would not worry. But just know. If you need to know any further details

Did you get. Seal of approval first 😂😂😂😂

I was eventually getting around to buying that kit and definitely won’t be buying it now. I’m interested to see what solution you come up with mate. Thanks for sharing 🤙🏻

I've got an idea for you. Pull the plastic trim off. You won't notice a gap then.

I put two sheets of noise dampening in the front doors of my new 78 and it was a dramatic improvement

A bit of black scilcon no probs 🤙🤙

Place seal in sunlight, maybe on roof for an hour to heat right up prior to installing.This will make the rubber more malleable! Regards hj75

It's good that The Cruiser Store offered to refund your money back. Let's hope they make one that suits your model soon. 👍

Hey brother, Ive got a 2022 LC79

Mate would it fit over the top of the old seal?

Just had a squizz online. Maybe the factory seal + adhesive seal. Dunn and whatson sell them pretty cheap

This seal is for the non curtin air bag variants. 76, troopy and dual cab. Not the single cab

That's terrible!

You reckon. Just adding window seal from bunnings will help with factory seal?

Did that heat paint work

Maybe the factory seal was meant as a space filler between the metal and the interior plastic. I have to be honest. It looks bad.
