When was Cal-look rubber introduced?
Jon:
Can anyone of you old Callook gurus help me out with that one?
Im thinking about running stock rubber without the trim, but it depends on when the Cal-look rubber was introduced.
Or was it simply "standard" rubber from VW?
Thanks!
Rick Meredith:
It was introduced in the early 80s.

I don't know exactly when "cal-look" rubber was introduced, but, I know it was available in '78 when I started my first cal-look project. I was very naive and uneducated then and didn't want to attempt to remove windows so I removed the chrome strip in the existing rubber. I gave it a good swipe with laquer thinner and then a healthy dose of armorall. That was MY "cal-look" rubber.

Yes... even after that!... Quality of the early cal-look rubber was not very high so I personally opted for OEM rubber... no leaky!
