Front Door Weatherstrip: Service and Repair

Front Door Outer Seal Replacement

NOTE:
- Take care not to scratch the door.
- Use a clip remover to remove the clips.




1. At the A-pillar, remove the door checker mounting bolt (A).
2. Detach the clips (B, C, D), then remove the door outer seal (E).

3. Install the seal in the reverse order of removal and note these items:
- Check for damaged or stress-whitened clips, and if necessary, replace them with new ones.
- Make sure the outer seal is installed in the holder (F) securely.
- Apply medium strength type liquid thread lock to door stop mounting bolt before installation.
- Check for water leaks.
