Door Seals (HELP)
I just installed new door seals and now you have to slam the passeger door to get it closed and the driver side will not close all the way. Anyone ever experienced this? Any suggestions? Thanks for you time

Re: Door Seals (HELP)
when i had that problem i used a heat gun to very carefully heat the seals and then close the door to form the gaskets
TOO MUCH HEAT WILL MELT THEM

Re: Door Seals (HELP)
