Description
Finally a solution to the drafty, rattling windows in Land Rover Defenders! These restoration kits are a DIY solution to a decades-old problem.
This proprietary rubberized window channel replaces the inferior factory felt lining in Land Rover Defender 90/110 rear sliding side windows and eliminates the famous glass 'chatter' common in these vehicles (fits Model Years 1985 through 2001 only).
Made from virgin (non-recycled) EPDM rubber for it's superior temperature and weather resistance, our window channel is impervious to ozone, making it fade-resistant. Upper flanges wrap out and around the window frame edge, so the glass never comes into contact with the metal, eliminating rattles. Inner surfaces are flocked to reduce friction allowing the window glass to slide freely in the channel.
Installed with simple hand tools, this product is designed to be barely noticeable on your vehicle yet greatly increase your driving enjoyment!
