Sunroof Seal

(1/6) > >>

tunnie:
It’s not leaking, but there is an awful lot of wind noise from the front of it. I’ve had it open a few times in hot weather, to cool car down quicker. Sure it’s noiser, perhaps not sealed as well. Nice steady 85mph cruise, I had to close the blind it’s that annoying.

Does look all cracked and such, it is a 16 years old...

Easy to replace? Worth doing?

Doctor Gollum:
It's a draught excluder rather than a seal...

Might struggle to obtain it separately from the sunroof...

tunnie:
Hummmm. Damn. As its a draft excluder, maybe a bodge, but black tape along front? Tempting to put silicone sealer and just pull fuse so it's longer useable.

Bigron:
Would silicone GREASE be a better bet? It won't wash off in the rain (unless it's a tempest!) and should cut down on the noise.
