I used wd40 to lube up the one side and attempted entry; but failed half way through, the side I was working on just would not budge after I got half stuffed in there....
Any ways to get that seal in with out breaking it? or disfiguring it? |

I think WD40 is bad for rubber, not completely sure, but I used soapy water and it worked fine. You need to be sure to flatten out the crimps in the channel from the factory prior sliding it in as well. You should ask Mikey914, the 914 rubber guru, he knows.
