Window Squeegee Length
The rubber blade that squeegees the window when it rolls down into the door; is it supposed to go perfectly in length from wing window all the way to the rear edge of the glass? Mine looks to be about a half inch or so short and I am concerned that it is going to allow excess water into the door.

They shrink over the years. Time to get a new one. While you are at it make sure the drain holes in the bottom of the door are open.

Thanks! This all makes more sense now. Yes the drain hole tip probably just saved my life.

At least a fingertip or more. The right side was the same as well so I was perplexed. I could slide the seal with a nudge fore or aft and it appeared to be in good repair. This forum is the best.
