Thanks.  I'll have to drop the site into a few conversations before my birthday :D

I personally found there's no substitute for doing it - while with/around fellow mud clubbers :wink:

And as Tim said, don't be afraid to ask questions here - even ones that you might think are easy/obvious/silly ... I've asked plenty (and still do :lol: ).

Quick question then, what is the best way to stop water coming in through the tailgate.

Just at the bottom rear of the rubber seal there just under a 1 inch gap.  Is there some sort of bodge job that can be done here or will it require a new seal all the way around?

Sounds like a new seal is called for....  that much of a gap shouldn't be there unless there is something out of alignment with the hinges.

Leave it - its lets the water out as well as in!

:D   I only noticed it tonight when I was using a wallpaper steamer to to get the tint off the windows.  Nice splat of muddy water the back. :(
