Botched G4 Elite Seal Install

So I followed the photos and didn't see the profile inset picture reference for my seal install. After closing the forward cover (with difficulty, the seal catches on the rear window), I'm left with 3/4" gaps in each forward corner. I know I'm pretty much left with removing and installing new seals as my only option, but can someone tip me to a source for the seals without having to go back to the OEM?

Thanks,

Chad

 

Anyone?

 

Not sure what seals you're specifically talking about, but lowes or home cheapo have a good assortment of weatherstripping. Try those. Or autozone.

 

I did the same thing but with the side near the tailgate. I just emailed Steffans Ent and they are sending me a new seal to put on. I'd just go with that.

Thanks for the tips everyone. Bilko, thanks for the links as well...I'll see about taking on the aluminum L channel install later on. Looks like a very smart modification.
