Hi,

I am replacing ALL of the rubber in our '74 2.0. All is going well though the TARGA pieces are a bear.

In the frunk the seal that goes around the entire frunk will not allow the lid to close all the way without bending the lid!!!

Seems that it is too tall? The old rubber though beat up, fits and allows the lid to close fine.

I have a note into 914Rubber, but I thought I would ask the team here if this is a common problem?

THANK YOU

Right or Wrong, I am also in the "No Glue" camp.

At first it would rise up out of the trough, but over time it settled in place.

I like the ability to remove and wipe under the seal.
