Windshield rubber for 1983 300CD

Is the rubber the same for a CD as for the 4 door? I think it is the same. Where's the best place to get the rubber?

I wish. I could remember the German link , I’ve tried to screen shot my saves from now on but this one escapes me , they are rare , maybe an aftermarket supplier has rallied to the rescue by now .A year ago I looked into this sight which had some overseas .

Maybe a good installer could cut down a 300d gasket ,cut to fit , glue it together, come back the next day and install , it’s about no leaks , if yours is dried out I can’t see how you could lose if it’s done right .

If you can find someone who can take their time , most installers rush because it’s a volume type industry , like tinting . I suggest inside a garage , yours preferable , talk out all the details first . Might be a higher price in the end but it’s probably the last time for the car most likely . These cars last so long it’s probably one of the biggest issues as they age , seals and gaskets .

Front or rear?

The rear glass is different for sure.

Why not go check an online EPC to be definite?
