Elise door waist seal

Elise S2 onwards door waist seal, Lotus part no. B1117U0009F  I bought this earlier this week from ‘VirgilTracey’ who had advertised it here for ‘offers’ and I paid him £125 for it, intending to fit it when I installed the pair of lightweight polycarb windows that I’ve just ordered, but because these are fixed solid,with sliding vents, I’m making some brkts. to secure them and the inner part of the  seal will not fit with them, so I’m going to use a different seal arrangement.

Hence reason for selling, the seal has never been fitted, and in overall very good condition, however there is a small amount of corrosion at one end with another 2 small bumps evident, due to damp when in storage, poor manufacturing quality I guess, but it’s in far better condition than those on older cars out there.

I’ve tried to show the faults as best as i can in the pics.

The price from DeRoure for a new seal is £328 + carriage!
