Hey John: I just replaced that seal on my slider, and very easy. I got the part from my local VW dealer for under $5.00. I think it is part number 211 843 731. To remove the handle you remove the phillips head screw directly opposite the handle on the inside of the door and pull the handle off. Have fun, Neal Neal Barrentine Bloomington, Indiana 1986 GL 1960 Baja Bug On May 4, 2006, at 7:41 PM, Automatic digest processor wrote: > Date: Thu, 4 May 2006 13:42:07 -0500 > From: John Rodgers <inua@CHARTER.NET> > Subject: Seal - Sliding Door Handle > > I need the seal, plastic rings, or whatever that fit on the shaft > between the sliding door handle and the door outside skin. > > Anyone know where to get these? > > I also need to know how to remove the handle to install the seal(s). > > Thanks, > > John Rodgers > 88 GL Driver > |
