Rubber or weather shield kit

I know this has probably been asked a few times but I am after a weather shield kit for my 1974 REPU. Both front and rear screens and doors. Is the B1600 combatible? Are the kits on EBAY all good, I think for the ford courier? I think 'atomboys' has a complete kit for sale on EBAY. Cheers

I use the atomboys door seal on my drivers door. It is thicker than the OEM Mazda one, takes a touch more effort to close the door. But it does seal rather well.

Haven't used any other door seals of theirs so cannot comment.

Thanks for the reply. I will check that out. Do you know if they also do the quarter window rubbers? Mine are pretty stuffed.

I don't think so. May need to find some used ones, if they're not ripped you can rejuvenate them with baby oil or Goop hand cleaner.

I had the same result as Brad. I replaced the seal on both doors several years ago with these ones from Thailand.

My passenger side door closes okay, however, my drivers door has never closed well since. Even after years of compressing the rubber I still have to slam the door to get it shut.

Looking for alternatives myself.

For the little quarter windows, you will likely have better results searching for Ford Courier parts. Should be the same.
