71T bumper to body seal replacement process

Does anyone have a link to a thread that shows the process to change out the bumper-to-body seals on an early 911? It would be the seals just under the tail light lamps that I am looking to replace.

TIA

I've done this a few times and it is quite simple. I do one side at a time.

Just a few nuts and bolts hold it on. Three or four it memory serves me correctly. There is a specific
seal on each side. They are not interchangeable. I use two sided tape to hole it in position while you
refit the corner bumper portion. Not hard at all !!!! You will spend more time cleaning than anything else.

Often, the lip on the bumper the holds the seal will be rusted or even rusted away. Also on the bottom edges of the fenders. Hope that's not the case for you.
