Weatherstripping

Your Mazda has weatherstripping along all of the connecting parts, and you may not have even noticed it. Some weatherstripping is quite noticeable because it is a black rubber that can be found around windows or doors. Some weatherstripping on your B3000<, null, null, null, null)">B4000 is coated and colored to match the body of your vehicle and may not be so prominently displayed. You may not have even seen the weatherstripping that is in the inner lip of your trunk or hatchback. It is there though.

The job of the weatherstripping is to build a barrier between two edges in order to keep water and debris from entering within the cracks of the body. It is also designed to protect edges from damage that can cause rust to start on exposed sheetmetal. Since vehicles are not all one piece, the weatherstripping is designed to seal two pieces together. It can fade and crack over time since it is exposed to sun and rain. It is generally rubber, and that does begin to deteriorate over time. It can also come loose and start to peel back.

When you need to replace any of the weatherstripping on your vehicle, you want to use OEM Mazda parts because they are exact fit replacement parts. The weatherstripping should fit without modification, and an OEM Mazda part will not need modified in order to fit. Shop at RealMazdaParts.com now!
