Flavia Coupe Quarter Light
« on: 23 November, 2012, 12:57:25 PM »
I've been trying to find a replacement seal for the vertical edge of the front quarter lights on my PF Coupe. So far none that I have bought have done the job as they have a lip that snags the quarter light glass at the top thereby preventing it from shutting flush at the top.

The top pin on my quarter light is quite loose so maybe that is the problem as it allows the glass to slope backwards from bottom to top along the rear edge.

Any suggestions for a suitable rubber seal alternative or a way that the quarter light pivot pin can be adjusted?

Found the problem... the top pin for the front quarter light has sheared though just below the point where it goes from threaded screw to a smooth pin. Anyone now where to get a replacement?
