The tonneau seal on my B is split and leaking. I'm trying to work out which part it is on ePer but it's not very clear.

Could one of you guys have a look at this pic and see if it makes any sense. I think it's item 10, but I'm not sure.

Number 10 to me looks more like a metal piece. I would suggest number 7 but Fiat will tell you anyway when you order it £130 I believe??

130 quid! I think I'm going to have to try and repair the one I've got.

No it's none of those I'll put up the pic & part No Shortly.

Part No (19) 46443795 gone up to £103 inc vat but you will get discount if you ask nice.

Thanks Alan. I'll give my local dealer a call in the morning and see how much they try to charge me!

No problem, you obviously haven't read the posts on the window rubber prices yet in comparison the tonneau one is very reasonable.

I ordered one from Mangoletsi this morning. £83 including VAT.

They seem to be coming down in price, most unusual

Yes, it's an Alfa and Fiat dealer near Knutsford in Cheshire.

Mangoletsi have been around since the year dot. From what I remember they've been providing tuning kits for Fiats and Alfas for ages.

You beat me to it Magicmole.........Mangoletsi are as old as Fiat themselves

Thanks for the replies

Just a query - did you fit it yourself? Was it straightforward? I'm pretty sure now the pool of water getting in under the plastic cover that lines the hood storage area is getting there due to a flaw somewhere in this seal, and I'm prepared to give it a go if it isn't too tough.

Cheers!

There is a guide in this thread: https://www.fiatforum.com/barchetta/101739-fitting-tonneau-seal-question.html

It takes about an hour to do and isn't too difficult. Once you've fitted it be careful to open and close the hood compartment slowly so as not to damage the seal.

I repaired mine with a bit of bike inner tube rubber, for nice waterproof and flexible seal. But gaffer or duct tape does the trick too.
