jalexquijano Posted August 2, 2016 Share #2 Posted August 2, 2016 (edited) i bought one from vintagerubber.com and the shop cannot seem to find a way to install it! I guess they are just plain dumb!! I dont think vintage rubber sent me a wrong rear hatch weatherstrip for my 1972 240z Edited August 2, 2016 by jalexquijano Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motorman7 Posted August 2, 2016 Share #3 Posted August 2, 2016 Here is how I did mine. For the 3 piece strip, I put the center one in first, centering as best I could. Then put on the two sides....trimmed the extra length. Hope the pics are clear enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the pictures! I'm curious to know how the shop did it? There is no welting so I am guessing you have to use weatherstrip glue and tape to hold it in place?

Mikes Z car Posted September 1, 2016 Share #9 Posted September 1, 2016 I used a lot of spring loaded clamps to ho;d my Vintage rubber weatherstrip in place while the glue dried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
