After 10 years or so, time to replace. I've seen a couple of youtube vids and they all used the same seal profile. Is it an industry standard? Apart from colour what other choices will I be making - are there different diameters?

Many thanks - window novice

Here you go. Thanks for taking an interest. That bit is in the centre where both doors close - elsewhere the seal is less crushed. Its about 13 years old I believe. I'd appreciate the name of the cross-section design, i.e. what to ask for, and a source. many Thanks!

Well the easy bit is it’s a p shaped rubber seal I’ve seen very similar ones and hopefully can get you a match. Problem with all gaskets and seals is the same every manufacturer has there own preferences to fit the profile they’re working with so when you come to need a replacement it’s tricky. I will be in touch ASAP.I see from the pictures you’ve also had to use epdm foam have the windows been draughty or is it for noise reducing?

Thanks Johnny A. If by epdm foam you're looking at the edge of the door, its the same seal as on the inside, but crushed, perished and dirty.
