Window Seal

Hey All,

New to RVing and purchased a Vista 32K. I'm in the process of getting it setup for us to travel and one of the things I want to address from my trip home with it is a window seal.

The front part of the driver's side window has a seal in the lower front that needs to be addressed in some way. I'd "like" to do this with replacing the seal all together but I'm not sure if this is a DIY job or not.

I'll be bringing it out of storage tonight to the house to do some work on it tomorrow and can take a closer look but it appears that the interior rubber has stretched past it's breaking point and split.

I'm looking for suggested ways to address this IF I cannot locate the trim piece to just replace the entire rubber seal.

Anything you can offer is much appreciated!!!

Thom

If it is a small piece of the trim that is missing you can go to a windshield glass shop and get a tube of their window sealant. I went to a body shop supply store and bought two tubes of the stuff. I used it to fix the outside rubber trim piece on my MH cause a new trim piece was going to cost over $100.00. The tube of sealant only cost $6.00. It is the same stuff the windshield glass people use to put in a new windshield.
