I cut the membrane and used GOOP glue-held on forever

Aren’t we all?

 

The replacements available have a “membrane” between the fat and skinny parts of the seal that prevent it from fitting over the end of the seal.  Is that supposed to be cut?  They also seem to last only a couple years before beginning to tear/disintegrate.  Contact cement doesn’t work very well to hold them in place.

If someone has some pictures, please share them with the list.  I'm in the same boat as John.

 

Happy and Healthy Healeying,

Hi :

I am replacing my door seal on my BJ8, and ordered the rubber end caps, 
and the metal end caps, as indicated in the Moss catalog.  I have never 
been able to figure out how those rubber caps are supposed to fit on the 
end of the door seal material, or how they are supposed to be held in 
place.  They just don't seem to have the same profile as the end of the 
door seal material.  I also have never used the metal end caps, so I 
don't know exactly how they are supposed to fit either.  Can someone 
send me some pictures or a description that might help me?

Thanks in advance.  I know you guys and gals are a wealth of information.
