Re: Re: Roof Rack foot rubbers for CA
Well spotted, I didn’t even realise you could get these!
I’ve been trying to PM you some links to photos of my van that’s online but with no joy, so I’ll paste the message into here instead:
Hi Gary,
I have got quite a few photos of my van up on Facebook, here are the links:

We got the van MOTd, taxed and on the road by Sept in time for our wedding. However as you can see from one of the photos when it is in a field there is a tarp over the windscreen, this is becuase we found that it leaks. Ordered a new rubber, took the old one out, repaired the sill, put the new one back in, but there is stil a tiny leak, so will fill it with mastic to remove any chance of water running through it.
Other bits and bobs I’ve done since Sept is tighten up the gear linkage so that it is easier to change gear (previously the gear stick would wobble all over the place, very sloppy, nice and tight now though). There is still the inside we are planning on customising, and a lot of the rubbers are going back on now. Infact you may be able to help me…..I found in my box of bits an long flat rubber, along with a bit of metal that would screw/bolt down over half of the rubber. I had put a sticker on them saying “driver’s side door rubber”, however now I can’t figure out where it fits! I would be very grateful if you could have a look around your driver’s side door and let me know where you have rubbers/draft excluders.
Also is that a video of your van on Vimeo?
