Greetings!



I went ahead and installed some D shaped weatherstripping on the front panels, based on a YouTube video. I installed only on the rear edges of the panels and one on the center of the driver side. When I put them back on I noticed that the driver side center seam is sitting a little higher than the passenger side on the back half . I don't recall it being that way when I removed the panels. I assume the weatherstrip did it?

thanks For any help!

Pretty good assumption.

Did you need the weatherstripping, or is it a solution looking for a problem?
