Subject:Re: installing seal on Vanagon rear hatch / door

Ed,

Need to use rubber mallet to seat well, particularly in corners. Even then, for awhile it will require some hard slams to close well.  After a month or so it will be working better. At least that is my experience. Maybe others have better methods.
