'84 Cab, new top... reseal procedure / tips?

Hi guys,
having a new rear-zip-window top installed this week. New top from our host (/World), and new seals from Pelican too. I already have the new headliner cloth as well.

I'm having it done by the guy that did the re-sew on the rear zipper window, and I know he's done a ton of other tops (not necessarily 911 tops though). I want to make sure I end up with a leak-free setup (stop laughing, I know, it's impossible).

Anyway, I seem to remember reading about having to modify some seals?

Here's what I ordered, if someone knows of something I / He needs to be aware of, PLEASE let me know. Thanks!

911-565-090-47-M260 / Cab & targa windshield frame seal
911-561-221-01-M260 / Left Cab vertical door window to top seal (this doesn't seem to have the "cloth" that my original one had, just rubber?)
911-561-222-01-M260 / Right Cab vertical door window to top seal (ditto)
911-561-244-01-M136 / Cab Top Front Edge Seal (is this the one that needed to be trimmed?)
911-561-206-00-M136 / Cab Top Side Seal - Right
911-561-205-00-M136 / Cab Top Side Seal - Left
911-531-095-40-M260 / Cab / Targa / Speedster Door, Left / Right
911-561-371-00-M100 / Cab top to body seal, Rear
911-561-463-00-M100 / Cab top to body seal, left
911-561-464-00-M100 / Cab top to body seal, right
911-799-542-85-M260 / Fixed Vent Window Seal
911-542-065-41-M260 / Cab Vent Window Cap, left
911-542-066-41-M260 / Cab Vent Window Cap, right
911-531-523-65-OEM / Door Seal Cap

Also got the door / outer window seals but figured we could do those later.

Thanks guys! Appreciate any heads-ups.

Yes, I drive mine as much as possible. If it's >32° & sunny, I've got the top down.

excellent question, subscribed. i also got a few things to do with my top, but i'll wait & research a little before i get it done.

good luck with yours, would be very interested to know how it works out. i would also be very grateful if you could describe how to tension the top etc.
