monte70car Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 The seal has a flat piece which is clipped to the cowl I used a pick to put holes in my, you can feel when you find a hole or on the cowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monte70car Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 I'm not sure on that style I know the rubber one its almost like a 2-piece style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 This is tough to put into words but I will do my best. If you look at it as a cross section, there should be a triangular shape seal but there should be another horizontal peice of rubber under the triangular part (all one peice). This extra flat peice is where it is fastened to the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
