After searching, I found that some used 3/8 butyl tape and others use 1/4"
What is the right one? I would assume that if it's too small, there will be gaps and if too big, the glass might move and stick out too far |

I used the 3/8 3M stuff and it worked great and lasted. Prep the area clean and take your time installing it. It can be kind of a mess if the cord gets caught on you, or if you apply the window to the wrong spot.
