I haven't tried to see if the gasket is a problem. The former owner had put silicone around it for reasons unknown. I will try that if the gasket becomes a problem. Just thought of an interesting theory. When you metioned door I was thinking regular doors. I'm thinking now that the lower cargo doors use the same crossectional profile as the regular doors. The only difference may be that it is smaller. Maybe one could cut a front door gasket to size to substitute for the cargo door gaskets then simply gluing the ends together. Hmmm... BenT
