Citroen XM Forum

The door seal membrane can be just a single sheet of builder's polythene, gaffer taped in place, and pierced/cut where needed.

Haven't yet managed to find 95 291 417 "Door window guide".
NFP and not on Pieces de Rechange.
The same part is on all four windows, FF & RR, S1 and S2.

Did fall over this; some good photos...

I may be able to find one off the few doors I've got.. Although I've just taken 4x off the last car shell that went..

Part 7 in this.......

Not sure if the dealer can still supply the guide clip, which might fit other models as well.
Obtain a clip, or drop glass from a car being broken.

The membrane should be waterproof but foam lined for sound deadening and to ensure it doesn't rustle against the door card.

Yup.. That's right..

The clip is XM I & II only (no other Citroen models).
There is a closed-cell (impermeable) thin cushioning plastic available, sometimes used for padding/wrapping, and about 1.5-2mm thick. Slightly stretchy and shiny stuff, and easily torn. Unsure what it's called. 500-grade polythene will not allow rustle, and the door card is already good at soundproofing.

Window fixed (for the time being) with a cut down plastic raw plug and some PU Adhesive....we shall see.

Decided to get/use some Bilt & Hamber KORROSOL for paint decontamination and some B&H WHEEL-WASH

Very very happy with the results






(The purple staining is metal surface contamination being lifted/neutralised)

That looks great.

Nice fix on the window guide, which is after all only a nylon block.
If the rawlplug proves to be too soft try making a block from Hdpe...milk carton.

As the repair is on the drivers window, it might be worth swapping it with one that will rarely/never be used.

I attacked the dulled side chrome rubbing strip inserts today...........

I popped them off the car, cleaned with Brasso, sanded with 800 then 1500 (dry) using a small hand held DA sander.
Cleaned them, 2 coats of adhesion promoter then 3 coats of clear

Looking good.
