MW rear side window seal, left or right suitable for BMW 3 Series E46 Coupe, M3 & CSL
Description
Do you own a BMW 3 Series E46 Coupé, M3 Coupé, or M3 CSL, and is the rear rubber seal on the side frame trim porous, brittle, or already cracked?
With the MW seal suitable for the rear side frame trim suitable for BMW 3 Series E46 Coupé, M3 & CSL you can replace the damaged seal without having to replace the entire side frame trim.
The problem: BMW does not offer the corresponding rubber seal as a separate replacement part. Instead, the entire side frame trim has to be replaced.
Depending on the finish—matte black, chrome, or gloss black—a new genuine side frame trim can be very expensive.
The MW seal offers a cost-effective alternative to replacing the entire trim. The custom-made EPDM seal lets you replace the damaged rear seal on the existing side frame trim.
With the included digital, illustrated installation guide, you can replace the damaged rear seal on the existing side frame trim.
The seal is suitable for the BMW 3 Series E46 Coupé, E46 M3 Coupé, and E46 M3 CSL with matching side frame trim in matte black, chrome, or gloss black.
The set is designed suitable for one side of the vehicle and can be used suitable for either the left or right side as needed.
