Sliding Door handle

The foam gasket worked great. My sliding door handle does not shake and the handle feels firm.

Just what I had been looking for.

I had been searching for this gasket for a while and only found it here. Fit perfectly. Just trying to eliminate as many as possible points of water intrusion.

Fitment

Wasn’t aware that my van didn’t had it, now my door opens and closes better.

Foam gasket for slider door

While I was replacing all the roller bearing on the slider door, I realized the exterior handle was very loose. The screw that secures the handle from inside the door had backed nearly all the way out. It was a good time to service this part which was missing. I also replaced the outer seal which I had purchased earlier. Everything works great now. Thanks, Gowesty! R/Jeff

perfect fit!

Fits like a glove. When installing the handle back in, be careful. I had to readjust and the hole held on to the gasket and pulled it off the handle. have a pair of tweezers handy just in case.

Doesn’t fit tight and lets water through.

Doesn’t fit tight and lets water through

Hi Eric, we have not seen this before. Are you also using the main body trim seal #251-843-711? That is the main weatherproofing component.

It is the little things that matter. It may seem like a simple small part but worth a few dollars to get quality.

If you replace your sliding door handle, get this as well.

These gaskets all die after a while, like 25+ years or so. If you are replacing the existing door handle, get the gasket. You will be glad you did the job right the first time.

Perfect fit

Mine was crumbling and I couldn't find a replacement, until I found it here on Gowesty's website.
