I was  afraid of a leak issue after seeing what it looked like after we
installed  it. Good to know we can fix it with the black RTV.  I'm assuming
like  what permatex makes.  I'm disappointed in this and a couple more  
things
we got from ISP.  But we got some good stuff too but I can't  believe they
sale something this inferior.  I guess they expect you to  put the RTV to it
like you said.


Another option would be to use some 3M window weld in a caulk tube.  I've 
had good success with it on several other projects, and it doesn't seem to  
color fade.
 
The "American style" window seal seems to be a big problem for our cars, as 
 it seems nobody can get it right. I was talking with Tram a few weeks ago, 
back  when he was doing a windshield seal for a list member, and was having 
all sorts  of issues with it (it too was an ISP seal). He basically called 
that seal junk,  as it just wouldn't fit properly (not up to his standards). 
I don't remember  where he said he got another seal from, but it was a much 
better fit.
