221-321 VW Split Bus Stationary Side Window Seal - 1950-1967 Type 2

Split Bus Stationary Side Window Seal – 221-321

The 221-321 window seal is an essential part of any "Splittie" restoration. Because these buses are prone to rust around the window tracks, old, hardened seals are a major liability. These replacement seals provide the flexibility needed to wrap around the corners of the glass easily while creating a high-pressure seal against the metal body.

These are sold individually, and a standard 11-window or 13-window bus will require multiple seals depending on how many stationary windows your specific model has. They are designed for easy installation using the "rope-in" method, which allows the seal and glass to be pulled into the window frame without damaging the paint.

Installation & Maintenance Tips

• The Rope-In Method: Use a strong nylon cord and a soapy water solution (or specialized window tint/rubber lube) to "pull" the lip of the seal over the body flange.

• Channel Preparation: Before installing, ensure the metal window channel is completely free of old rubber, rust, and debris. Apply a rust-inhibitor paint if the bare metal is exposed.

• Sealant Usage: While these seals are designed to work without glue, a small bead of non-hardening glass sealer can be used in the outer corner to provide extra protection against heavy rain.
