Is there any kind seal on the 4AD door front edge?

Post by kabu »

Hi All,

I have postponed the installation of the doors on my 4AD project because they would just have been a nuisance when working on the interior. Now when I finally installed them I got wondering whether there should be some seal on the front edge of the door? There is a simple flap seal on the back edge of the but should there be something on the front edge as well since without anything you can see through the gap.
Should there be some seal there?

I could not find any remnants of a front edge seal in the car but that does not prove that there could not have been some sort of seal.

Thanks Mike. That is what I suspected as well since I have not found any traces of seals there.
