Pretty simple really. Ripped off old seal after cutting it away parallel to the rear edge of the flat seal (the factory pop top seal is one piece). I left my flat seal in place as it was in fine shape. I scrubbed the bottom edge of the pop top and scraped some glue off from previous repair attempts and let dry thoroughly. Then starting from one edge of the flat seal just push the new seal on, down the side, around the back, and up the other side, trimming to give a tight fit up against the flat seal. Was kind of a b***h getting it on around the sharp bends in the rear corners but otherwise went on very easily. Looks super! Good luck! Tony Anthony L.
