Mk 8 minibus rear wheel arch trim query

Postby RKH735 » Sat Aug 23, 2025 9:32 pm

Hi. I have a 2014 ‘64 plate mk 8 17 seat minibus with dual rear wheels.
The rear wheel arch moulding has a rubber weather strip around the outside which has cracked and perished.
I’m struggling to find any replacement items and although I’ve taken it to a dealer they couldn’t find it, suggesting I buy 2 full replacement set but stating as it was the same part no as the standard single wheel van it may or not have the rubber bit. He didn’t inspire much confidence and it was extremely expensive.
Does anyone have a part number or any idea where I can source one from? Trim itself is fine, seems crackers to spend hundreds of pounds for a bit of worn out rubber.
Thanks.
