Just been to ford to ask about the seals on a new fiesta will fit a pre facelift fiesta they said they not sure untill they try so it's a slight gamble but a £50 a pop either side without labour is it a gamble I wanna take? I would do it if it's a deffinet fit. The new design it's only been out since 11 2014 what u guys think?

seals probably no diiferent and still have same problem?, just clean the area off properly and restick old one back on, your ford dealer obviously not using the correct adhesive, there is a special adhessive they should be using for the rubber trims . dont know if you can buy it directly off them or not, its a twin adhessive thats mixed together, does work if used correctly.teromix 6700, eurocarparts do it but expensive just for 1 car, does 15 cars if you know anyone els needing it doing.lol

alternative is the superglue that is the non runny stuff, dont know what its called.

I looked at the trim on 2015 fiesta and it's different the bit ain't there with the sticky tape stuff

I had the same problem even after I had both seals replaced under warranty. I cleaned old glue residue off with Evo-Stick Adhesive Cleaner then restuck using 12mm Double Sided Foam Tape. Been on now for for nearly 2 years and still holding.

I just cleaned any muck off and used a clear silicone sealant from halfords made by Granville so you may need a cloth!!!

But they have now been stuck for about 9 months. I had to do 2 doors in quite quick succession. Back passenger side went first then front driver side.

But they've been fine ever since.

My local dealer just cut them off! Had no problems with it.

U got any pics mate

My car was stolen the other night and is with a body shop so unable to get a picture !! They just left a very small amount of the rubber at the top but must only be a centimetre or so. Can post a picture when it's back with me.
