[TR] Adhesive for Rubber seals

[GHaynesTR4 at aol.com]

Yep, Gorilla Snot, especially in black, is the adhesive of choice.   

It should not be necessary to glue the entire strip, as they remain in 
their little tracks with adhesive used sparingly and at the ends.

When installing the seals, DO NOT pull the ends into position so they are 
likely to compress back and leave a gap for air and water to enter.   Sadly, 
I did that years ago and have had some water enter that might not have, 
leading to soaked carpets on occasion.   I'm gonna replace the door seals on my 
TR4A this fall and will leave a little extra (maybe 1/2") length, to be 
trimmed off only when I'm sure the rubber has relaxed.   It's pretty difficult 
to put additional rubber in place later.

Good luck with the project, Guy.   You are at the fun stage!   Take your 
time.
