I recently replaced the seal on my engine hatch cover. Used a self sticking soft foam garage door seal and stuck it on the aluminium hatch flange. Seals great but it sticks so well maks it hard to remove hatch cover and it is too soft; tears when installing or removing cover.

Suggestions for replacement seal and installation instructions??


Thanks

Gene, Ken Burton found a place and posted the website last year. I might still have it somewhere. I need to replace the seal on mine also. One side is gone.
