You can set it up as you like between 90-180. I have an armrest installed so my
range is around 120 degrees or so until it stops at the armrest. Works great.
I highly recommend it.

Can the McMaster Carr door seal, applied to the lip on the cabin cover, be removed/replaced
if it is floxed on as a couple of people have reportedly done?

Haven't tried using fox to attach the door seal .... and don't know why
you would .... my MMC door seal has a spring metal liner that grips the
lip of the cabin cover. If the lip is too thin in places then you can
squeeze the metal to help it grip.
Linn ..... painting the interior

Bob,
The 180 kit has twice more lateral movement which enables the cam to pull
the door in before the pins exit the door structure. Even though you use 30
degrees of handle rotation for the cam to pull, the pins can still come out
over 1-1/2 inches into the guides and fuse structure. When opening the door
the pins retract into the door structure about a 1/2 an inch and all of this
is totally adjustable.
With the 90 degree kit it is more of a timing game. You can still get it to
work great, you just have to get the cam engaged as the pins extend out of
the door. There is still room to do it.
The 90 can be installed in a painted door and can be installed without
taking the pin exit guide screws out. No matter which route you will have
to take the handle mechanism screws out.
Also, keep in mind the 180 PlaneAround kit does not work with flush handles.
Aftermarket flush handles have mechanical interference past 90 degree
rotation.
Reminder for new builders!!!!!!!!! whatever route you take for door
handles/latches/pins, don't cut your Vans' supplied handle gear racks! Cut
the 10 inch racks in half instead of what the plans state. There are no
negative repercussions for having too long gear racks. This way your stock
handle will rotate up to 180 degrees. I sell the racks but they are
expensive and I sell them for my cost. Vans are twice the price of mine and
that is the price difference between the 180 new and 180 retro.
