I don't know about Bill & Steves, but all the 'affordable' seals I've seen were
die-cut crap that just doesn't fit right. Personally I'd rather spend a little
extra and get something that is a) easier to install and b) actually does what
it's supposed to. {Quick side question: what are peoples opinions of B & S? The
few products I've ordered from them were not high quality and I personally have
little time for anyone who doesn't produce a catalog of their products}

The FLAPS carries some nasty yellow goop called 'Weather Seal Adhesive'... just
be careful with the stuff, it gets *everywhere* and takes forever to wear off of
your hands.
