I'm currently rebuilding a couple of doors for my 90 and want to,fit new seals etc, but looking on ebay there are 2 different sets of window channel kits. One has 3 chanel sections and 2 corners

http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/LAND-ROVER-...%3A89bf7c471590a3588b9a9a40ffbdb6a9%7Ciid%3A5

The other has lots of chanel bits and stuff

http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/LAND-ROVER-...3A89bf7c471590a3588b9a9a40ffbdb6a9%7Ciid%3A24

I messaged the guy about the one with more parts asking what they were as it doesn't give much info in the description, but his answers were as good as useless.

Can anyone be of more help and tell me what all the parts are. When I stripped the doors there was only the felt channel, thin aly strip and inner and outer seal on the door top where you rest your elbow. What are all the other parts?

The first link is to buy just the plastic channel that is the first set of bits to sit inside the door frame. Around the three upper edges of the glass.
The second link has the plastic channel pieces in the first link, plus the fabric covered guide channels that the glass actually runs in, plus the two aluminium shims that go under the channels.

Makes sense, thanks, shame the seller couldn't have just said that.

Maybe they are making too much money! So, can't be bothered.

My plastic filler pieces were intact, just a bit faded. I sprayed them black again and bought my channel here. SP 4x4
If you're working to a budget, this may be a cheaper option for you.

Thats a better price! Is it possible to reuse the corners then too? My aly spacers are knackered, but how vital are they?

All of the plastic channel pieces I repainted, including the corner pieces. It'll depend on their condition. As I say, mine weren't split or damaged in any way so I painted them.
I didn't replace my ali spacers/shims. My windows are a nice snug fit in the channels and run well.

There is a seller on ebay who has the kits
but he also has the part numbers for what goes into the kits, and its a lot cheaper to buy the individual parts from paddocks
