I bridged mine too but sealed it all up so there is no access to the hinge nuts. In other words, the hinge half is in place permanently. I carved up some blue foam then laid some thin glass cloth over it. (Note that 2 different kinds of McMaster-Carr seals are being referenced in this thread. They are completely different from one another.)

I just used a piece of scrap fiberglass, cut it to size, epoxied it in place, then a little micro to make things smooth. This gives a nice surface for any type of seal you choose. >> >> Bob >> >> >> Sent from my iPad >> >> ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 05:58:45 PM PST US Subject: Re: RV10-List: RV10 door seals From: John Ackerman I'm very happy with the rvtraining seals. Much better than my attempt at using van's seals.

I am at a fork in the road as to which seals to go with. Looking at the ones on the factory demo, I wasn't impressed with the use of the blind rivets to hold it in place. Also, although the use of the McMaster seals is intriguing, I guess I have some reservations about sanding away so much of the door opening. Therefore, I was wanting to see if there was any feedback on the seals from rvtraining.
