    What would you consider a normal amount of time? 7 months of daily use seems like a fair amount...

    Will you be doing a group buy for the seals?

    Door selas

    Sorry for the lack of responses here, we have been working to bring these seals back for the e30 community. Another production run is currently under way for the coupe door seals, we are hoping to have them back in stock by mid March. We currently have sedan seals in stock, ready to ship. Best to reach us by email as we are not able to surf the forums as much as we would like. Sales@VintageAutobahn.com

    This explains why I never heard back.


    I have mine installed since July and overall they work well. Fit properly, seal well, etc. One annoying thing about them is the rubber appears to be pretty stiff. I have to really slam the doors to get them to shut, and it's pretty common for me to take a few stabs at it before the door fully latches. To help remedy it, I loosened the two Torx bolts on each door catch slightly. This decreased the closing effort somewhat (not as much as I'd like), but the doors now sit slightly proud from the body.

    Does anyone have any ideas about how to remedy this?

    Current price from BMW is $330 per side. A bit high...

    I attempted to order a set back in September. After almost 8 weeks of no parts delivered I had to file a PayPal claim and get a refund. Unfortunate since I'd have much preferred to get the door seals!

    That sucks, they came really fast for me and worked well.
