Door Lower Weatherstrip Seal

Choosing A Door Lower Weatherstrip Seal

A door lower weatherstrip seal fits along the lower part of a door in a specified vehicle application. The A-Premium selection includes individual seals, front pairs and front-and-rear sets. Identify which door and section are being repaired, then choose the listed position and package quantity.

The seal's contour and attachment points should match the section on the vehicle. Choose the package that covers the doors being serviced rather than assuming every strip has the same shape.

What A Lower Door Weatherstrip Does

The lower weatherstrip helps form a barrier at the door opening against water, dust and air movement. Its shape and position are designed to meet the surrounding door and body surfaces when the door is closed.

A worn or displaced seal can contribute to a draft or water intrusion, but other seals, door alignment and drainage can also affect the result. Find the path of the leak before choosing the part to replace.

Installing A Lower Door Seal

Compare the new seal's contour and attachment points with the original. Clean the mounting area and check for damaged retaining points before installation. Follow the attachment method specified for the vehicle and seal.

Close and reopen the door to check the seal's position and contact. Adding adhesive is not a substitute for identifying the correct fastening method or correcting a misaligned seal.
