Are you talking about the outer perimeter rubber seal for the pano glass? You used this stuff to hold the seal back to the body?

Did a little test with a small piece of this stuff and it holds but it’s pretty aggressive. Seems overkill. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240320/f9bb27b6841004d60c661a2dc87479e2.jpg

Any tricks to keeping this roof seal down?

3M exterior trim tape doesn’t hold. I’m guessing this might flop around some when driving. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20240320/353943b4772f68efd4c02b1638519874.jpg

What a cluster. You took a dive so deep that I don’t think most would try. Once I get my glass back in this week I’m also shutting it down and will only open it to clean

Replaced Pano roof surround seal as well as the seal on the rear pano glass. My only input for a perfect fit of the seal is to make your mark where you think the cut needs to be than add an 1/8" or...

Nice! What color did you do yours in? I wasn’t about to try and install the material myself. Maybe I would’ve if I did it with an inexpensive suede.

Thanks for confirming the shade position. ...

I wonder if the insulating double glazing glass would quiet things down?!?! I know Prop did this glass but can't remember if he said it was worth it.
