Mk1 transit windscreen rubbers.

[baconsdozen]

I've been offered some of these new.They'll be about £40. Is this about right?.Bloody long while since I bought one.

[FredTransit]

Sounds about right, the last Mk2 one I bought was only £27, but it was maybe 8 years ago.

[madmark]

probly about wright they are still avalable i had a new screen and rubber in mine!
the cost was £140 in total!

[FredTransit]

YUp sounds right, £100 for the screen, £40 for the rubber.

[baconsdozen]

I'd heard they were hard to get hold,apparently not,so I'll pass on these.

[FredTransit]

Dunno so much, the one mark had would have been a while ago, and the one I had was a Mk2. How many do you have to buy?

[transitgeoff]

i bought one from east kent trim and got greyvanman to fit it with a new screen, i couldnt find one anywhere else and nor could gvm, i paid £40 and it didnt last 2 years and the corners cracked, i sourced another for £40 again last year, but they are not easy to find from my experience especially if there mk1 that take the chrome insert

[madmark]

gota be worth getting if it takes the chrome insert!

[baconsdozen]

These take the chrome insert.I'm going to have another go and see how many they have/how many I've got to buy.
They did say that they are the last they have.

[Neil]

can t get the insert one but a normal one is readily available round here for about 40 quid

[The Docmeister]

Would that be the same as a Mk2 rubber?

[WINDSCREENGUY]

mk2 rubber has ears at the top

[The Docmeister]

Are the ears essential - or are Mk2 rubbers easily available?

[FredTransit]

Mk2 rubbers are easily available, you can order them from Autoglass even, that's where \i got our last one from.
