Hi All,

 

I've decided it's time to replace the rubbers on the front and rear windscreens. They are dry, don't look good and are long past their best

 

I have a mk3 mini 1000 1973.

 

I realise this will involve the removal of the glass to do this.

 

Would anyone know of a mobile service that might undertake this if I supply the seals - which brings me onto my next question - where can I source good quality seals. 

 

Many thanks in advance

Jason

Also Phoenix Trim are usually good quality for all types of Mini seals:-

From what I've read, a lot of mobile windscreen fitters give up trying to fit them. You would be better off taking it somewhere so that they have more time to work on it. If you don't have somewhere close that does windscreens, you could try a panel beater/smash repairer (whatever they are called where you are).

Hi,

 

I have not used them but there is Super Mini in Chertsey 07867 417161 not too far away from you.
