Default Bailey Channel in T3

Eventually got sick of having to replace miserable quality window channel
every 2-3 years because the fabric rots away etc etc. Our local rubber
supplier had some all rubber ( using the term rubber loosely) channel with
the flock lined sections for the window. Fitted perfectly, the base fits
into the metal clips that hold the trim tightly . Used a bit of masonite in
the groove where window slides with a light hammer to locate it into the
clips. I used a few dabs of contact adhesive to hold it straight. Window
slides nicely, looks better and doesnt rattle, supplier reckons it should
last 10 years. Just got to work out a better seal for the rear door
(squareback) now. Supplier of my bits refused to sell the brazilian stuff
saying it was c...p.
