I am getting ready to paint my Tii. I need to take the rear glass out but i cannot find a replacement seal for it. Does anyone know where to get one at? I checked Mazda, Mazdatrix,ebay. no luck. Thanks for the help

 

have you tried mazdatrix?

 

yup i didnt see it in theyre catalog

 

glass companies?

 

ya i was gona try safelite tomarrow but not sure if they sell just the seal

 

when I had asked a glass shop years ago when I was painting a FC that particular glass shop told me it was part of the rear glass.

 

Im going to call today. Can't hurt to ask I guess. I wish they were reusable.

 

Well no luck with glass company. Damn

 

seems like masking would be a hell of a lot easier than removing the window....

 

Agreed.

 

I agree but there is some surface rust that will just get worse if not done properly. So masking is not an option

 

Are you talking about the outer removable seal that has the plastic clip that joins the ends and lines the entire winow?


I just replaced mine with a brand new seal with a new plastic piece and I got the set from the dealer. Well the dealer here in Germany.

I still need to get my hatch repainted. Might do it this winter.

 

Ya I called the dealer here in the states and they told me they are discontinued

 

This is what I've done so far. I still for a put the guidecoat on and block sand but I for a find the seal for the hatch

 

I guess you have the option of ordering one from Germany. You know who you could pm to see if any are still available and if so get the proper phone number and go from there.

 

I got a brand new seal with the plastic joint about a year ago from Malloy Mazda. I'm surprised to hear it has been discontinued, but this is going to be getting more common as our cars get older and rarer. I hope somebody comes up with a workable substitute for people looking to repaint their cars.

 

i would also bet malloy mazda could get you one...

 

They should start making the fc3s again.

 

actually Black Dragon Automotive should carry it.... :o)

 

Wooohooo found one at mallory. Mazda. Thanks for the suggestion to check there. Oh and by the way Mazda of ocala Florida sucks.

 

Glad they had one for you! What was the price from Malloy?

 

+1

 

+2

 

$85.94 and for people looking for it later down the road FB0150611C is the part number. KC is the guy I talked to and he was extremely nice and helpful

 

As of this spring, Black Dragon stopped carrying FC parts. If you check their website, you'll see they only list parts for the SA/FB now. Here was a thread on the subject:
