  good item 05 March 2010

  The part is as described and works very well, the delivery time is pretty good (5 days including a weekend). A 'helpful' plumber said i should chuck the leaking machine and he would replace it for £300, so at £30 the price is excellent. The included 'instructions' are less than useless. I definately needed the instuctions in the other reviews. However i have an older bosch machine and i could find no way to wedge the door hinges open with screwdrivers. There was no position that had enough friction to resist the very strong springs. Instead i found a small hole which, if you slot a small screwdriver through, holds the hinges open at about 30 degrees. just right to complete the job. another thing - my old seal was leaking for 2 reasons. at one end the rubber had perished, but at the other it had just worked itself loose. if you only have this second problem you may not need to replace the seal. just refit the original.

  bosch door seal 17 February 2010

  read the other reviews, had a go myself. took about an hour, you only need torx wrenches, you can even wedge the door hinges open by putting other torx wrenches in the holes so you can slip the seal in. seal looks diferent but works and fits the same. m/c is 12 years old but a £30 seal saved £400 on a new one. go on have a go,its easy.

  Bosch lower door seal 26 November 2009

  The instruction sheet did not provided any useful help, only a warning as to where the brackets should be placed. I think an indication that either special tools are required or it must be carried by two people should be included. A warning too that the design has been changed would have been helpful.

  Tricky door seal 28 July 2009

  Second time lucky with the seal, The first one had a broken brkt. second one bent but usable,similar review to the rest ,in short, take out the three screws either side of the lower front panel,remove it from the bottom as it hooks into the control panel. Open the door fully, insert the two scewdrivers either side to lock hinges open( make sure they are secure as they can break the door hinge Bearings if they fly up too often, I put mine in place then fixed them together with tape and/or plactic straps to a piece of metal to ensure they could not come out of position) Place plastic ends in place as per diagram on seal (make sure the square of the brkt shown in picture is on the middle {central} of the three metal sides ) push the seal onto the lower tray, then remove the two screws either side holding the hinges, now insert the plastic brackets between the hinge and Stainless door replace the screws, fully tighten, then remove the screwdrivers, replace the front cover and replace the six screws,fully tighten. JOB DONE. hope this helps as the picture is not really self explanitory

  Fixing replacement dishwasher door seal 17 June 2009

  At first I was perplexed to find the replacement differed from the one I took off but I was reassured when I read the other comments. I needed two screwdrivers to make the job possible but they were large ones lashed together with insulation tape. Then with the hinges securely jammed in the fully open position the job was relatively easy.

  fantastic improvement 28 February 2009

  very fast service with dhl, very impressed. the seal itself does look different to the old one, but works so much better. although i managed single handed it would definitely be easier to fit with an extra pair of hands.

  simple job 09 January 2009

  Although the seal didn't look like the original ( rubber skirt looped through stainless steel) it was easy to fit and is a clear improvement on the original design.

  Easier Way To Fit 18 December 2008

  The photostat picture of the dishwasher seal was of very poor qaulity it was difficult to see how the seal was positioned.When fitting the seal i locked the sprung hinges down this made the task very simple.To lock hinges down i used a pair of small bladed screwdrivers.
