Back at it. I finally had time where no one in the house was sick, we were in town, I didn't have to work any overtime, it wasn't raining or snowing and I didn't have another priority (mostly because we hit a deer last week and I can't work on the van as its still in the shop).


I started on the trunk seal which has been worrying me since I started in this area. I really didn't want to have the rust in the trunk come back because of a leaky seal.


Here's the two areas I was (rightly) concerned about. Passenger's side rearmost edge and hinge corner.








After removing the old gasket I found just few more issues.


Pass rear corner.




Pass hinge corner
