If anyone needs any, I have some nice alternative trunk seal for the Amazon 120-130

If anyone happens to be in need of replacement trunk seal for their Amazon I sell some very nice 'alternative' trunk seal for those cars. I call it alternative seal because it's somewhat different and much better than the stock seal for those cars. The stock stuff is made from a sponge type rubber and has to be glued onto the edge of the trunk. This stuff I sell is made from very high quality PVC rubber over a metallic skeleton and pushes onto the lip of the trunk so it takes 1/3 the time to install and no gluing is involved.

If you're interested in any of this seal feel free to contact me outside this forum at rojSPAM_OUT@telus.net (remove the SPAM_OUT part from that addy to contact me) or check out my auction ads on eBay. Just do a search for Alternative Trunk Volvo 122 on eBay and you should find my auction ad if I have one going at the time (which I often do).

Thanks,

Roger

    For those that are interested...I bought one of Roger's seals and test fit it to the Canuck - a vast improvement. When I get the car painted (some time after I get the B20 - M41 conversion done) I'll put it in for good. I have no association, just a satisfied customer.

    The seal you sell looks nice, however I'm concerned that the sponge half is not being utilized as it was designed to function. The seal installed must allow the sponge half to stand proud, thus a closed lid will compress sponge seal. The sure way of checking all seal contact is to close a dollar bill between panel and seal and feel the amount of pull. You can try the doors in several places and the trunk all the way around the lip. It should not hold tight but resistance should be felt. I never tore a bill. The next test is paper towels laid in the trunk and water spray. These methods works for my years in the bodyshop. It's better than getting in the trunk while someone else shines a flashlight.
