so i was in the junkyard today looking for some random parts and found 3 1988 base model n/a FC's. i'm sure you are all familiar with how the weather stripping on the bottoms of the driver/passenger side windows crack open over time revealing the metal beneath. but on any 89-91 FC's that i've seen this on the metal below is bare rusty metal...but on these 88's it was chrome!?!?!
i know some older vehicle have a sort of chrome weather stripping...but this had the regular rubber material overtop of the chrome. any S4 owner have these??? and at the junkyard i was able to find an FC battery box W/cover, plastic underpan tray/guard, inner fender well guard, and passengerside door air vent all in perfect condition for only $15 :bigok: |
well on my 88 its rusted metal. That reminds me i need to get that fixed some how.

hey man did it have any interior pieces (specifically dthe warning light surround in blue)
also i could use some mufflers that arent rusted to pieces (will pay shipping and stuph) |
I thought they changed it to plastic in '89. I know any that you order from mazdatrix now are all plastic, all years.

They also keep as much water from running between your window and your door which on a vert we need all the help we can get. |

I believe to have found the source of the leak behind the drivers seat, thats the only leak I get.

the outer door weather strips are only like $40 new....
i think the early ones are painted stainless steel, the laters ones have a rubbery coating, but are still metal underneath mike |
