So read some old threads trying to figure out how to install the front trunk seal from 914Rubber. It seems that many install with no adhesive for maintenance purposes, but I'm having trouble getting the seal to stay in place.
So some remedial questions: 1) Does this picture show the bottom (facing the ground) of the seal or do I have it backwards?  2) Do most people use weatherstrip adhesive? maybe just in the corners? 3) Can somebody post a picture of where this part goes? I don't seem to be able to find a picture anywhere.  |

There's a hole there that it plugs into. #1 the small side of the weather seal goes on top and the larger side on the bottom in the channel. I do not glue mine in and after a rain or car wash I pull it out to dry the channel. Glued I think it can trap water under the seal. |
