Where does this go?

Default Where does this go?

I've been routing some new speaker cables through to the driver side door and I found a piece of plastic in the bottom of the door which looks like it could be a window stabiliser. The window still works but it's now screeching a bit as it winds towards the top.

Can anyone show me where this goes?

It's sits at the top of the door and presses against the window.
I found one too. And binned it.

There was a thread a few months back where the same thing was asked, and half a dozen of us said we'd pretty much binned them.

You should refit these as they stop the glass from rattling when the window is down.

I found one when changing speakers and it made quite a difference. Missing on other side though, so if you intend binning it, PM me and I'll take it off your hands.

Take the other door card off and you'll see where it goes. It's an arse to fit back though, you'll need nano hands and some needle noses.

If you regularly close the door with the window down you'll notice the change.

This is easy i replaced mine, all you do is...

The seal that runs along the top of the door, on the outside. Follow it to the back when the door is open you should see a pin, remove it, lift up the seal now, now its so easy to replace

Put it all together again
