BMW E39 M5 Front, Rear Screen and Sunroof Seal Trim Replacement

Welcome along to another E39 M5 DIY How To Guide.
In this guide we will be replacing the front windscreen / windshield seal, rear windscreen / windshield seal and sunroof / moonroof seal.
This is a very straight forward process and can be done in around 15 to 30 minutes for all 3 seals / trims.
All parts are available from BMW and are as follows:
Rear screen trim Upper trim / seal - 51318159785
Rear screen trim lower trim / seal - 51318159786
Front screen trim - 51318159784
Sunroof seal trim (flocked finish) - 54128169710
Do not be tempted to use cheap imitation aftermarket items as they will never fit correctly and you are likely to suffer wind noise.
If your screens have been replaced at some point then you may have difficulty in removing the old trim seals due to adhesive squeezeout - Double check any sealant before refitting the new trims to ensure ease of fitment.
Thank you for watching and please subscribe to my channel for more E39 M5 DIY guides in the future.

Great Vid, I must do this - seal 169 710 is NLA - So Ive ordered another ending with 245 551

[@WestinghouseProductions]

Cheers - I know that BMW go NLA on part numbers if a slightly improved version is available (Sunroof gasket being one that has been superceded at least 4 times now!).

@@WestinghouseProductions just recieved, any tips for the E34?

[@WestinghouseProductions]

N 540 Afraid not, I’ve not worked on an E34 in about 10 years. I imagine the principle is the same though as the glazing on that chassis is bonded too.

Did you use any glue or something else than water with soap? Very beatiful e39

[@cookiehead2]

No, the OEM seals will stick on their own with just water to activate the adhesive.

Love your accent

[@KITTENTIGER285]

i need to replace that also and wanna know if needed to stick that with the glue or not?

[@WestinghouseProductions]

It comes with the adhesive already in with the seal, just lubricate as per the video and then once it has dried, the glue bonds.
