will look into it... the bailey channels are only $35 each i think from rare spares so not to bad... door rubbers and windscreen rubbers are the killers

I tried Clark rubber bailey channel in my VH wagon but it was not quite right. Ended up buying from Better Auto Rubber. From memory was only around $100.00 to do all for doors with a rubber that is a great fit.

all the jams and insides of the doors, boot and bonnet have been painted. doors have been put back on as well as boot and bonnet. final rub down was happening when i left for work so hopefully the outside will be painted tomorrow :) too excited

im keen to lay down a heap of dynamat on the floor before i put the new carpet in. my question is do i remove all the old sound deadner(looks like a fun job) from the floor or can i lay the dynamat over the top to double the sound deadner??

id say chisel the crusty stuff off and then lay down some more deadener then throw on the dynamat.......I plan on doin the same thing when I get new carpet
