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. -Marc |

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! |
