My husband is doing mine today. The tech at the dealer gave him a heads up about the difficulty of keeping the rubber gasket in place, so he used some spray adhesive to hold them in place. I'll find out tonight how the install went. He put the adhesive on sitting in the den watching TV last night and didn't seem to have much trouble, just a little overspray which he was going to wipe off as soon as they set. I'll let you know his verdict.
I put mine on took about 1/2 hour.start at the sharp corner also the gasket has a slit in it that goes in that sharp corner.
i used rubber bands to hold them in place, worked ok. :bigthumbsup:Quote:

Michael had no problems after glueing the gasket on and letting it sit overnight. He confirmed that it went well and the glue process made all the difference.
