The rear tail gate and side rubber window seals are splitting on my 96 disco. The strong Aussie sun has caused them to split. I have repaired them using black silicon, but they are showing signs of splitting in other places. Are there any aftermarket rubbers avail that have better UV protection?

M.

It isn't only the sun Down Under, it happens everywhere. I replaced mine about 6 months ago, and they are already showing signs of splitting again (NC, USA).

I never found any aftermarket gaskets, but I wish I had looked. I was told by a few people that LR had fixed the problem with them, but that apparently is not true.

Let me know if you find any non-genuine replacements, as I might be interested.

Good luck.

I was on Roverconnection.com and they have them but they are genuine LR parts not aftermarket.

Thanks for the response guys, there must be someone out there in this big wide world that has them. Rover must have realised they had a problem as the Disco II doesn't use them any more.There is obviously a world market for them, if some one to make them!
