Your best £1-£100 van investment

never had an issue with mine.....and I'm definitely not heavy handed! From what I can gather, size and accurate fitting are crucial. I've had them on a T5 and my T6.....best 20 odd quid I've spent on my vans.
They came as a twin pack from here: https://vwcaliforniaclub.com/shop/ both drivers and passengers are 600mm
Thanks for that, that site is a bit cheaper than Amazon but it won't ruin my Christmas!
I've only just noticed when I went on now so I've ordered another one, so make that £22.78
Im tempted to chop it so its only at the side as thats where the tinny noise cane from.
On the iPad Pro you can have 2 apps open side by side.
Did you follow an L shaped profile or did you allow the seal to "kick up" (more of a J shaped profile) at the leading edge of the door to follow the profile of the wheel arch? Quite a few seem to have done it that way but I positioned mine as per the caravelle style.....on both my T5 and T6 and never had an issue with closing.

Yes Im a J idiot ha
I'm not saying doing it that way is wrong @PukkaT6....it's just that I photographed a caravelle in the showroom and did it the same way....just figured that must be the best way to do it. The other thing is, before I saw the light and used to frequent a lesser forum, I bought some from a guy in Germany who reckoned he was the world's leading expert/supplier of door seals.....oem profile blah, blah, blah. When I tried it, it was puckering up where I curved it around the door profile.....I'm sorry but that ain't right! When I contacted him, he said I was the first to complain.....whatever? The stuff I've had on both of mine has been bang on and looks the part too....so size is a factor here. I think a millimetre or two can be the difference between something that looks right and something that most certainly doesn't.
Got these lights from Costco today. £13 for four. Rechargeable, with two USB leads included. They are magnetic, and the metal plate (with 3M tape) has notches on so that they locate positively. About the size of the key. Just remove to recharge.
They can be set to constant or auto. There is a proximity sensor on the front which turns them off when something is close. Nice warm white colour, and they last for 3 months, used for a minute a day apparently.
I’ve used one in my gas cupboard so I don’t have to hold a torch at night when connecting the gas.

Another gap filler - fits suprisingly nicely into T6. Just need to see how it behaves in summer temperatures... will update in October if there are any issues...

Thats great, looks better than the one I got. Did it come from the states for under £5?
