Rubber door

Not sure if I'm posting this in the right place, but here goes anyway.
Almost all the rubber seals on my car are in great shape, so I don't need an entire seal-kit. Having said this, the seals on both of the rear passenger windows (where they meet windows on the doors) are in dire need of replacement (half gone, noisy at speed and leak water). Does anyone know where I can get replacements and what's involved in taking the chrome trim off the rear windows to secure new ones?

Have you tried Year One yet? I think that's where most people go first, like Dave R, Jack T, Hans, and Tony. Dave swears by them, cus they'll deliver overseas, which is great cus most of the regs here live in the UK and other parts of Europe. Considering that you live in the land down under, Rodger, Year One would be your best be.

Here is a link for ya: http://www.yearone.com/images/parts/j/jh 446.jpg
The seals at Year One are really reasonable. If I screwed up and got the link to the wrong part, well you can always get to the main menu if need be, but I'm pretty sure thats the part that your in need of.

Link works fine Joel - thanks. I had a look and will order more stuff from YO in the near future, but this time I'll think about it more carefully and try to include all the items I need at the same time to reduce shipping costs (duh...)

I've got a large shed/garage and the Challenger takes pride of place in the middle. No way will I take it out in the wet as it's virtually rust-free and that's the way I intend to keep her. She was stored in a shed for 18 years before I got her, so is a true "survivor".

I wish mine had the same fortune. Its not a rust bucket, but it shares those same common trouble spots that most CHallengers have.
