help me, m going crazy because i cant find the weather strip to replace the roof rack once i take it off!! where do i get the weather strip at? ive tried automotive stores, performance stores, car cosemetics stores, the delership, and even a dang hardware store... so why is it so hard to get when ppl on this forum seem to do it without any trouble.

HELP PLZ!!! (im sleep deprived and going nutz)

thx, justin
 
the weatherstripping I used to fill in the gaps was ordered through my dealership. I could find the part #'s and you can go back there and try again.
 
Hello Justin and Welcome to our happy little corner of the net, and to our Club. There are TWO BIG fridge'S in the corner with anything you can think of in them...help yourself...of course only take what you can LEGALLY have.

make yourself at home on one of the big fluffy couches, kick your shoes off, put your feet up on one of the tables, yes we are allowed to do that, mom don't care....and take it easy.

oh...btw....every once in a while a food fight breaks out...so you may not want to wear nice clothes here.

Welcome!!


Keep in mind this is a part that came STOCK on the Canadian P5's...and not on the ones from the US.....however your dealer CAN get the weatherstripping.....its been done. Just don't take no for an answer if your dealer gives you some crap about not being able to get it.
 
first thing i want to tell you is use the search for roof rack rail removal some great how to do it.but make sure you are mechanically inclined and always be prepared for the worse, it was fairly easy to do but take your time as clips could break as i stated before the four buttons one under the light and three at the rear of the head liner are a one time use only the strips will pop on the post in the front, on my 2002 it did not have a rear post which i think is common so i used goop to fasten the rear down you will understand when you get the parts dont do anything until you have all the parts.here are the numbers you are looking for BJ3D-50-9H0D and BJ3D-50-9LOE this is the filler strip pieces.the one i got had little slid covers that were originally for the canadian racks which are not usa specs there may be a part number for usa cars which may not have the little covers, they are about $70.00 a piece very pricey plastic good luck.
