Function and application of the sealing strip

The sealing strip for the front right door is responsible for the controlled guidance of the window and its sealing at the contact point with the door panel. This component:

• limits the ingress of water and moisture into the door interior,
• reduces the risk of corrosion for window regulator mechanisms,
• stabilizes the window during regulator operation,
• improves the visual finish of the upper door edge.

Thanks to its proper profile, the strip works with the factory window mechanism, which translates into smooth closing and less load on the regulator.

Construction and body fitment

The offered sealing strip is a component structurally prepared for installation on the front right door, in the area where the window meets the outer part of the panel. Its shape and geometry are consistent with the manufacturer's factory specifications, which ensures:

• proper adhesion to the window edge,
• consistent connection with the body line,
• no need for adjusting or trimming the component.

As a part from the Protective and decorative mouldings group, the strip serves both a technical and aesthetic function, contributing to the visual continuity of the vehicle's side profile.

Condition of the component and benefits of choosing a used part

The strip comes from dismantling and is offered as a used component, which allows for an economical repair while maintaining the original manufacturer's specifications. Choosing this solution means:

• lower cost compared to a new component,
• preservation of factory fitment to the body,
• reduction of waste through the reuse of functional parts.

Installation purpose and vehicle zone

The strip is intended for installation in the front, right part of the body, in the door area – depending on the specific vehicle configuration. Proper placement on the vehicle allows for maintaining tightness in the critical side zone, where the window is particularly exposed to water, dirt, and road salt.
