In Dec 2017 with help from the forum I installed new door weatherstrips on my PV444. At first the door was a little hard to shut but it improved with time. One problem has persisted. When opening and shutting the door, the hinge side weatherstrip gets somewhat pinched between the door and the body and the resulting rubbing has caused considerable wear and tear on the weatherstrip to the point of imminent failure. I have tried repeatedly to alleviate this by adjusting door alignment but have never really found a solution. I bought the weatherstrip from VP Autoparts from whom I have purchased Many parts and have always been satisfied. I know that aftermarket rubber seals are not always a perfect fit. Does anyone know of a good source for these weatherstrips, or a good substitute for them?
