    Hi Davy

    Good question. Renel’s catalogue http://www.renelauto.fr/catalogue2016.pdf page 29 shows three seals, but there may be some variation between the early and later body frames/surrounds (before and after ’52). My car (pre 52) relies on the windscreen frame seal but also has the seal between body and windscreen surround which seems to be more of a draught excluder. There are opinions among club members about the quality and effectiveness of the frame seals on offer and clearly some are regarded as poor.

    Is there any adjustment you can make to the screen hinges to achieve a better fit? Is the seal new?
