The top of the seal is like a letter "T" and can be pulled straight upward at wither end with strong fingernails. Then it's easy to pull the rest out. Or, a screwdriver blade on its side could push the front end of the seal up but risks scratching the paint.
New ones are available; I can't remember exactly where, but I think they were listed for about 2 bucks apiece somewhere recently... Paul |
