Boot Seal

[theweaver]

Hi, I have replaced the boot seal after rebuilding my SC.
This has quite a bit of tension on the lid, and holds it away from the body when closed. It appears to be a poor design, with a lip which I think faces the wrong way to prevent the ingress of water.

I am quite disappointed after having a nice set of boot carpets which keep getting wet.

Am I expecting too much?

I cannot find any threads about it on the forum

A picture would help decide if it is somehow installed wrongly.
What is the source for your seal?
If not the installation, adjust the latch at the front.
Remove 2 plastic plugs and have at it with an Allen key !
