    Allison,

    If you want a temporary fix till you can get a replacement seal, just cut the seal where Sue's finger is pointed in the first pic. Trash the piece in the front track & replace with felt weather strip from Home Depot or Lowes. I ran mine like that for several years till I finally got off my arse & put in an OEM seal I got from Sue. There are probably still pix of it in my gallery if you want to take the time to sift through all those pages.

    She toldme the front vertical rubber gasket is all ripped and twisted, so I mentioned your fix when we spoke by phone, although I told her to cut it off a little further down, at the base of the tweeter panel. And told her to try your felt weatherstripping idea.
    She was losing daylight so she would get back to it later.
