Hi


The latest bus,
http://www.zorck.dk/cara3/
have some holes under the windows, below the rubber.


Small holes -4-5 mm across (yet).


I know that proper fix is remove window, weld, replace window.,


What are the best ways to intemediate fix?


It will have to work for some months.


Remove rust the best I can.
Rustproofing, Tectyle or Dinitrol.
Silicone to make it watertight


was my plan.


Any other suggestions?


Long term plan:
* Remove windows on blue van (train in removing windows).
* Cut out parts of the windowframe, for the welder to work with on
the yellow one.


Happy driVWing
