If the sliding roof seal is damaged, it can be replaced. Worn seals in the roof cutout must be removed and replaced with new ones. Long strips are glued to the front and sides of the roof opening using universal glue, and a short strip is glued to the back. The rear short sealing strip must be glued so that it covers the rear curves of the roof cutout. The front sealing strip is inserted so that there are no gaps between the seals.
The rubber seal of the opening part of the roof can be replaced with the roof removed. The old seal must be removed and a new one glued on with universal glue.
