Ok guru's
Who has bought the aftermarket front hood seal? this question is for you. I did my instal on wed and now my hood barely is able to close. Should i just give it time under pressure to settle or did i make a huge problem with the aftermarket one? andrew in the Soo |

I think we are all in the same boat on this one (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drunk.gif)
That aftermarket seal doesn't fit so well, needs glue to stay in place, and makes the trunk hard to close at first...can't say I got much water in the front trunk for the 6 months I've gone without it, but better safe than sorry so I have a seal now (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |

I am at the heart of the great lakes in Sault Ste Marie,ontario,canada lots o wet stuff. I did a re-glue last night and still have the hood trying to bulge up from hinges to hood latch. i will give it some time with the hood closed to see if it settles. how long should i wait till i try another approach?any suggestions?
