rust around vl windscreens

[hughey]

just about every vl ive seen including mine has at one point had rust below the windscreen its those strips above and below the windscreen there watertraps.now ive heard of people using a vt windscreen rubber as a replacement wich is a good idea .has anybody seen or done this, or a similar mod on there vls.cos id like to fix my vls rust problem.

i was talking to a windscreen bloke the other day about this and he said you can put aftermarket rubbers in. there is a hole in the top two corners which need to be filled though before hand.

I did it to mine, it is a universal rubber.

Hey bex, i've seen vn screen rubbers fitted to the vl. Very nice. I was going that way myself until i ended up with the whole car! It gives a lot cleaner appearence but it does leave a slight gap in the top corners. Easy fixed if you are still in primer.

i had the rust on front n back..
jus get a screwdriver out and hack at it, then bog it up. then get some sandpaper n make sure theres no rust left, then get some rust-killa prima, then quick respray.. lookz like new..
jus went qreckers and got some seals, had no problem since..
thank god im getn rid of my vl
