Makes all the sense in the world Jeff. I just can't tell REALLY good how it was new.
See this other picture.
My original was changed by myself a good 27 years ago and I had the joint on the LH side of the trunk opening siliconed together then. Knew it wasn't correct, but I had not written it down or had pictures of original installation. I have to do it again very soon and I would like to do it right this time.
Joe, are you saying that yours was siliconed together just to the left of the tear in the second picture I posted?
Andre, chime in here again buddy, give us your opinion and/or observations..
