So...I rememeber Mr. Jim Friesen telling me about STP Son-of-a-Gun (or maybe that 303 stuff) and silicone were used in some way but I don't remember how.. Weatherstrip cement it is... Bob, Before you run to the store, you should know that there are about 5 little clips holding the front of the gasket in place, barely visible and easily damaged. You might want to remove the old gasket and see how many you need/broke before going. I am talking 116 but guess that your 123 will be similar. I do like stp Sun of a Gun for lubing the gasket before installing but don't get any on the corner where the adhesive will go. The gasket will push in dry but why not give it a little preservation help on the dark sides. I just did the back doors on my 116 chassis. The only place you need adhesive is at the lower front corner of each door. 3M weatherstrip adhesive works fine if applied to both surfaces and allowed to cure before contact. A piece of duct tape across each corner will insure it won't move. Good luck, Jim Friesen Phoenix AZ 79 300SD, 264 K miles 98 ML 320, 146 K miles
