    Hi JLT,

    In your situation I’d be tempted to take the seals out and re-install them, making sure the “H” is the right way round (the thin slit seals on the roof side and the thick one seals the window side) and using polyurethane (which glues and seals it) or silicone (which just seals it) in the slit before installation.

    Hmm. I just took a look at one of the pieces left over from the stuff I got from justkampers, and I can’t see any difference between the two sides. So maybe the seals they’re selling aren’t really the ones for the job.

    Has anybody else had problems with the seals that justkampers provides?

    If you want to try new seals, I bet you can find a local supplier that caters to owners of camping trailers or boats. I found this one online:

    Thanks for the link. My experience is that few of these suppliers will ship outside the UK, but I could always look around here and see what I can find.
