First of all, praise be for the Amazon's heater - it must be easily as good as any I have used in a old or new car. However it doesn't solve my problem which is to eradicate the whistling noise around the front windows (both sides) which is bearable up to about 50mph but intolerable on long motorway journeys.

Can you tell me which are the various components of the restoration of this area? Of course I will get new rubber seals, but are these a Volvo part which I can order? THen there is the magic-sounding windlace. I am new to this so can someone explain where I get it and again is it bought-to-fit or do I have to cut/adjust it?

With these two parts, and a steady hand, could I expect to eradicate this noise or will there always be some because of the design of the car? I would love to hear from owners who have done a successful job. And just a quick last question before I go. Carb-Intake roar. Is this best lessened with sound-proofing in the engine area or with carb-silencers (which I've never actually seen - I'm just guessing).

Please be as noisy as you like in discussion. This kind of noise I like. Thanks.

Tom
