- As vehicles get older the rubber weatherstripping along the windows can get dry and cracked. As this happens, water can enter into the door causing issues. The rubber molding can be easily replaced as shown by Andy Phillips in this video.

Great idea. Because with some cars, you have to take apart the entire door panel and remove the window. The pieces are called window sweeps. But this method saves you time and money, well done sir!
Thank you 👍
Casually has a Countach in the garage lol! Thanks for the video, gonna do this to my 86 Celebrity
Thanks for tutoring this ignorant student Andy. Last night, on the drivers side window of my 2016 Civic, a thin rubber strip just below the dry and cracked rubber weatherstripping came apart on one end and the free end (and middle) was sticking to the window when I rolled it up and down. Here in S. Florida its been raining all week and needed to get it repaired scared it may cause more damage inside. I saw your video last night for the first time and thought it was too got to be true in my case. This morning I took the car to the Honda dealership and replaced everything (not sure all it entails) on just the drivers side window for $300. It looks nice and new but similar to your finished product using a $10 tape, alcohol and rag. The other three windows rubber weatherstrippings are also dry and cracked and was advised to replace soon. Fortunately, the rubber strip on all 3 of the remaining windows are still intact and didn't have to replace. For now. I am watching your video again now because I will be using your method before the rubber strip detaches on any of the other 3 windows. Saving up to $900 total. As soon as it stops raining of course and the Sun starts beaming again for a couple of days 👍. Sorry for my long winded story but I thought it would be nice to share as a token of my appreciation. Take care and much success to you and your loved ones. Rock on amigo, Max. 🙏
A little cooler talk while waiting for my 3M Civic 2016 approved tape to come in from eBay, I've been watching all kinds of cool videos on people removing the entire strip on Civics. If and when I ever replace the other 3 on my own I will always remember this video that got me there (also the $300 Honda dealership easily got from me). Many blessings amigo, Max.
Nice Countach in the garage
😍😎
I had my window smashed in a break in, but they must have used a pry bar and made a 1/4 in gap on the outside of my door frame where. Noticed after installing the replacement, how the new window was no long flush with the molding. I wonder if this will work or if I'll have tear it down again and try to shape the door back to standard.
Cool 😎
How wide was the stopping that you used ?
The Countach behind OMG
It’s a replica that I’m restoring
I have a 89 Chevy CAPRICE Classic how do you replace window weather stripping.
What is the black strip that is revealed after removing the cracked seal? Would have expected to see a gap between glass and existing trim that wasnt removed. Is it perhaps a optical illusion where the gap looks like a seal?
The black is the plastic base for the old seal. To remove that you need to take the door apart
Do you happen to have a link to the product? I'm having trouble finding the 3M weatherstripping
I don’t, but it’s on eBay if you search
@PhillipsVision I can't seem to find the item, been looking on eBay.
@@wolfpackleader2752 they may have removed it. Check Amazon as well
Nice thanks for sharing I have a 04 Neon that we’ve had since brand new it has almost 98,000 on it. I have been to find the new set of window strips for the doors but have not been able to so I may try this. Question was 1 roll enough to do the whole car?
Yes, the roll was about 10’
Just wish I could find it a 1/4 bigger to completely cover the door trim as well. Trying to find out now if I can get it.
@@antoniomarc7174 check eBay
Yeah I have been surfing around on eBay just have not been able to find any bigger but I think for the intended purpose of it I will probably just go with this roll.
Hey, do you happen to know the actual product name of this tape? I'm searching and I cannot find this specific tape anywhere.
Search on eBay, that’s where I got it. It’s called window trim edge moulding. I purchased 4M
4:48 i don't recommend prop alcohol, it will damage paint and can damage certain plastics. Anything that sticks is best to clean with prep sol/wax & grease remover, window cleaner is pointless.
So it wont hurt to put it over top it like that?
I wasnt sure I could do it taking the door panel off but someone tried to break in my car and messed it up bad where my window is getting stuck and wont roll up
Should be fine, just don’t get the adhesive on the glass
@@PhillipsVision okay thanks...mines a little different but I'm gonna try it.
@@PhillipsVision Thanks for the video it is clear and informative. Would the glass grab on to the rubber strip over time and fold in during rolling down the window? I see the rubber strip does not have the insulation to slide on the glass smoothly without sticking! What is your experience with this? I am trying to understand if this is a temp fix or would this last for a few years at least? Thanks!
@@yogi5864 it will last if installed properly. Don’t let the adhesive hit the window and it shouldn’t fold over
i searched every site for the 3m tape you are using BUT I cannot find one that only one side of the tape is 1/2 adhesives and the other 1/2 plain rubber !!!! HELP .....
I bought it from here, it took a while to ship but not too expensive
@@JoeMama-qx3hz but " here" is not a web site
Go to his description below the video, click on the "more" button and the rest of the description including links to the weatherstripping will appear. Hope this helps.
@@JoeMama-qx3hz i have same problem finding NON 2 sided tape. The video shows 3M 300LSE. When i search for that at Amazon and even 3M ...they all say DOUBLE side tape. I dont see any SINGLE side tape 3M 300LSE
Hi, where to find this adhesive tape? I live in france didn't find similar
3M product
I bought it on eBay
@@PhillipsVision your video said you would add a link to the weather striping but it looks like you forgot...did I just miss it ?
@@jchavins no, the product was on eBay and the seller changes. If you search it on there you’ll find it from various sellers.
Link please
Will rain come into the car if you just remove the trim and dont add any back?
Water will get into the door
@@PhillipsVision do you think it would damage anything if you did that ?
@@user-bq4xc2yy3m will cause rust to the interior of the door and the mechanisms
Andy can you send me or post on here the actual link for the product you used? I tried your link in the video here and it appears something different. I also ordered 2 times and they sent something completely different and the second order the stuff appears paper thin. TY
The product in the links on here have tape covering the whole sticky side and that want work.
Try this one, it look like what I used

@@PhillipsVision Thank You Andy
I have to fix mine but from the inside and I don’t. Know what that is called
It’s just 3M weather stripping. I have links to similar products in the description
Whats the model of that strip and brand?
It’s 3M and you need the thickness that your car requires
Do you think at would work for my g35x infiniti
I don’t see why not
Did it work?
Need back window rubber seal
Has anybody found the same or similar product on Amazon recently? I saw it 2 weeks agoand waited to order it. It now seems to have disappeared.
Check eBay, they have various sizes
@@PhillipsVision Thanks. I will try again. When I searched, all I could find was the inside mounted.
Where do I find this ?
I ordered it from eBay
I can't find this in you links
I got it on eBay but I believe the seller’s listing is gone
@@PhillipsVision I purchased something similar on Amazon
@@johnhowzeiv1856 Do you have link, product name?
Will this work on all cars? What's item number on eBay? Thanks!
Yes, it should work on all cars. I have links in the description to where you can buy this stripping.
@@PhillipsVision Thanks
not even a bikini girl getting out of the Countach?
You don't want to get windex on your car paint.
