Your right Fred, it pretty confusing (not that I could have done a better
job mind you :-). I've added a few labels to the original which I think
indicate the parts of the seal/car you are talking about. The side labeled
TB would be the one which would be at the bottom of the trough. Side
O would be the side of the seal which is "away" from the lip. L is the
lip, D is the "flat'ish" part of the door and P is the part of the seal
which is pinched between the door and the lip. Am I anywhere near
correct?
Thanks for all the help so far,
Drew
