thanks Del, huge help. When they painted my car they took the old ones out and didn't put them back in (they were shot), so although I don't have to deal with stripping the glue, but since I didn't take them out I don't get to see how they went in
@@delchamp800 Thanks, I'm surprized someone is not making new ones I've heard, but not sure that you can use ones from a E21 or E30 But they are also probably hard to find FYI bought my first BMW in 1974 a 1973 2002ti
This is the wrong adhesive, you want 3M 08011, which is compatible with these epdm gaskets. Use 3M general purpose adhesive cleaner to clean off old adhesive, body, and gasket surfaces prior. Also when applying the adhesive, you want to fully cover both the gasket and body surfaces with the thinest coat of adhesive possible, it helps to mask off the gasket area on body using painters tape. Let it set up for a couple minutes until it’s tacky, then stick the gasket to the body. There should be no runny adhesive and the two should stick instantly, no need to tape or clamp. Remove your masking tape and you’re done.
i really like your pace and style but for me so hard to follow the video with what exactly you're doing sometimes..../perhaps not enough close ups to show the channels etc / cheers

Thanks for the video, been looking for a tutorial on how to do the door seals on my 76. Keep it coming.
Thank you!
nice job explaining the process, i''ll now give it a try.
Thanks Del.
Thank you for the video.
Do you have a video of the rear window seals too.
The front and rear window seals are a whole other thing.
Excellent door seal install video! I'm in the process of restoring a 1973 2002tii Would you know of a source for good quality sun visors?
Thanks. Not many good visors to be had. Good ones are hard to come by
