Does anyone know if a standard window seal will fit the sliding side windows on the late bay windows? Before I tear one apart and find out its a special NLA seal etc. It's a Champagne Edition with the chrome insert as well, any info appreciated.

They sell the rubber seals for that window at Wolfsburg West. It is just a standard rubber w/o vent window. You can order it with or with out the groove for the chrome strip. Good luck!

Chabanais I used the seals from Busdepot and would addvise to go to West Coast Metric for any rubber. They are more money but they are alot better. The new rubber from Busdepot (one year old ) I have to replace now. All the corners riped and split.

Chabanais , I had a hell of a time getting it on the glass, had a real hell of a time getting the windows in to the bus, and after about a month or so the rubber split in every corner and I mean split in about 6-8 spots.
I have gotton a lot from them , but no more rubber.
Chabanais , where are you from ?
