[DML] Upper door seals

[Chris Almy <chris.almy@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I was helping another D owner with a leak in her roof. After removing the 
T-panel and sealing it up (note to POs, duct tape won't seal leaks in the 
long run), we created a new issue. When the doors are opened, the top 
rubber seals catch on the body and wrap around the door. This makes a 
really loud squeaking sound and will probably eventually tear the rubber. 
It does this with and without the T-panel installed.

Has anybody had this happen to them after removing the T-panel? If so, what 
did you do to fix it? We can trim the rubber a bit, but the length wasn't a 
problem before. The only other thing we can think of is putting glue along 
where the foam is along the panel edge. As a quick test we pressed the 
center section of the T-panel down and it still got caught between the 
panel and body.

Thanks,
Chris
