Brumby Windscreen Rubbers?

Post by drkevorkian » Tue Mar 07, 2006 9:54 am

Greetings. I am looking for alternatives to original Subaru windscreen rubbers for my Brumby. Original rubbers are over $200, and no body seems to make an aftermarket rubber for the brumby.

Do i have any other options before i fork out for a new rubber?

Thanks.

I just had a screen and new rubber fitted last weekend to my brumby and it cost $250 all up. So yes you can get after market ones. Where abouts are you?

I got a new aftermarket rubber seven years ago for $100.

Sometimes Brumby is not in listing but 79 - 84 Leone is !

same thing most of the time anyway

eg radiator hoses.

im up in mackay in QLD. BYB... where did you get that done?

What ive found so far is this...
Rubbers from Obrien windscreens = $200
Original Rubbers from Subaru = $220

and our engine supply store who claims to have access to everything... says no aftermarket rubbers are made for the brumby? So the leone should have the same rubbers... i might suss that out ?

Any other sugestions?
thanks

look for other windscreen installers, backyardies that maybe work for O'Briens, or windscreen suppliers - ebay ? google ?

i'm afraid thats how much they cost.

there was a place i got mine from that was a little cheaper. I think 160-170 maybe but it was a few years ago. It was a little windscreen shop in the industrial section of southport. opposite von bibra motors if u live around the gold coast area.
