The seal between the roof and side panel is old and tatty. Currently the roof leaks in the back corners. Anyway, I have new seals to fit. No obvious videos online, so how is it done… clean surface, apply double sided tape, or sealer then carefully clamp the roof down?

I thought it was just an interference fit. Clean and stuff into the groove. You could go crazy with tiger seal if you wanted to, but the next person to change the seals will hate you

I put a thin bead of black silicone in the bottom of the groove before fitting, slightly less aggressive than tiger seal but does the same job. They are supposed to be a dry fit but anything to help reduce water ingress has to be worth it!
