Stupid flappy rubber has dawned upon the entrance to my bus....
Recommendations or good known replacement please peeps.
From those who also may have suffered flapping rubber disease...
Exterior weather strip in lamens terms.
The original bonding tape has given up on me!!

1- It didn't work...
2- it looks utterly shît....

I bought a roll of heavy duty double sided gorilla tape, works so far (12 months)
Silly cone works too, just tape until cured.
Door seal replacements are silly money new.

Splendid!
The postage is 11€ to France... What a joke.
I've tried again this morning after drying it all out and removing the old tape.... I folded the tape onto itself to make it thicker as to hopefully grip better.... I'll be looking out for the proper stuff. Thank you very much for your help peeps. Very much appreciated

Pretty sure I just used trim tape in the past and never worried about it again.

So look on ebay france. Lots of double sided trim tapes & plenty of ads that say 'Livraison gratuite' or 'Rapide et gratuit'.

Use 3M there's a reason why it costs more, I used it, like a 1/4 inch and you can't see it (6 years ago??) still working fine
