I may be nude day soon....

Enjoy!

Glad it helped!

Thanks for sharing!

No need to put up with rattling windows - most annoying!

Cheers! Mike

No problem 👍

Glad to help

yes - just a bit of patience and the right felt

You're welcome!

Rust!

You could use silicon, but the issue is the rattling not the sliding

Oh yeah!

lol!

Yes it could be interesting as it needs the gearbox out - and it is one of those gas guzzling 6 cylinders!

Britannica Restorations Ltd very nice !!!! I love my gas guzzling 8 cylinder. I always like how smooth the 6 cyl was. I look forward to it !!!!!!

About the same MPG - back in the day they pulled the 6 and put the V8 3.5 in as you got more power

Easy eh?

@@BritannicaRestorations ...and that's why you've become RU-vid's "Go to" Land Rover mechanic. Cheers!

Andy there should not be felt in the bottom but there should be a plastic runner so it does not adsorb water

Nope - there is just a plastic runner - they are usually ok

These are about £10 per side and the originals were 23 years old and as you can see quite easy to change

Yes, I’ve done it before myself, but the new felt only lasted a few years before the rattles returned, so I did it again with some U-channel from Wolves trim using pretty much the same method you showed. I did make the mistake of using that channel around the two corners, but the way it puckers in the bends made the panes very hard to close, so I put felt back in the front edge and corners and keep the channel along the top. That is working, but they have now developed a rattle from the plastic channels at the bottom. I got a set of those Garrison seals second hand but unused for £30, so they should be worth a punt. It’ll be some time before I get a chance to fit them, though.

It was a tough call!

You have to remove the window and strip it down to do the seal as it slides in from the top or bottom of the window

I should have known, it’s not like Land Rover to make things easy, I guess they’re going to be a bit draughty lol

Sorry Bob they cannot - you have to remove the window Good news is they are just simple windscreen wiper blades !

I may have half a sherry...

Thanks for reply .but can I just replace the window and not take the frame out ..or do you have to take it out ..thanks again .

You could try here www.gpat.co.uk/vehicle-glass-replacement/glass-fitting-tools Mine is quite old and discontinued now

I have a new video on the back burner and I found out the OEM felt seals are 1mm+ thinner than the cheaper aftermarket parts

@@BritannicaRestorations this makes alot of sense, given how now I can't actually move the window back or forwards, walked away to make a brew before breaking it with me sausage fingers 😂

I like the marine blue or white

@@BritannicaRestorations Ive got a 90 that I'm doing up and looking for inspiration for a respray in the spring. It'll be a farm truck mainly. Don't think I've ever seen a defender in that blue, I quite like it!

That was the very early colour like the S3 - I also like the Keswick green classicvehicleslist.com/land-rover/187526-land-rover-defender-90-truck-cab-in-keswick-green-restored-with-new-engine.html

I see you were paying attention!

@ Britannica Restorations Ltd. Loved the way you recovered yourself and appreciate your response!!! Keep the videos coming, love your channel!!

I opened a pack and the felt is 7/x8 1/8

@@BritannicaRestorations Thanks Mike. Looks like these will do then!

the moss is the environmental feature - Greta would be pleased!

Britannica Restorations Ltd, I don’t think anything would please that girl.

I came here to see a variation of this comment; oh the subtle humor (I think). LOL
