Has anyone replaced the Joint Seals before? Part #11
These are looking split on the ends and deteriorating.

Joint Seal, Left / Right

Not changed them yet but mine are looking old and split. I took them off to give them a thorough clean so can see that they’d be easy to replace but not entirely sure what their job is. Have a recurring ‘watch’ on items in eBay but at £40 each I’m not in a rush to buy unless or until I find cash down the back of the sofa.

I replaced them with rubber weather stripping with 3m tape on the back. Seal better than oem.
That's idea, can the rubber bit be pulled of the plastic strip and a proper U channel rubber pushed on.hppyd1and2 said:I replaced them with rubber weather stripping with 3m tape on the back. Seal better than oem.

I just took the plastic completely out. The rubber set down on against the plastic mounts. $8 a roll beat $40 a piece.flybobbie said:That's idea, can the rubber bit be pulled of the plastic strip and a proper U channel rubber pushed on.hppyd1and2 said:I replaced them with rubber weather stripping with 3m tape on the back.
