DC2 rear hatch weather strip seal/gasket

Post by streetlights » Fri Apr 23, 2021 4:38 pm

Hello, can anyone help me with a part number?

The rear seal/weatherstrip on my GS-R is deteriorating...I cant figure out what the part number is...the moulding around the glass looks fine...can anyone help me out with a part number for the seal that i have my finger on in the image? Thanks!

That seal is discontinued unfortunately. I tried to order it a few weeks ago.

Check out IRUNOEM's parts site to confirm:
https://www.acuraexpressparts.com/v-199 ... rter-glass

Steps:
-Browse to: www.acuraexpressparts.com
-Input Car details, ie 1998 Acura Integra Type R
-Select, "Body/Air Conditioning"
-Select, "Rear Glass - Quarter Glass"
-Browse page, I believe you are looking for No. 5

Myself and many others are in your shoes. Honda has raised prices and discontinued parts across the board. I’m not aware of an aftermarket solution but we as a community have started this thread to try and tackle:

The last 1-2yrs has really been when Honda dropped the hammer on our community.

that sucks...i hit up a junkyard yesterday and pulled off all the door/hatch weatherstrips/rubber gaskets and even took the passenger window and some other little bits...

i had ordered a bunch of s2000 items from hardtopguy and blackhawkjapan earlier this year successfully

If either of these are able to source these parts I'm willing to split shipping. :thumbup:
