I had a problem with the inside seal and and rubber flap of my 2003 SC Antigua hybrid. The flat seal was folded in half and uncomfortable to lay on. So I removed it to flatten it out. Upon taking it out I noticed the rubber seal around the hinge had metal clips holding it in place and they were all rusted out. So I cleaned it all out and plan on gluing it back in place. The problem is, now that I have it ready to go back in, I forgot which way they go back in. So is there anyone that has theirs open that can get me pictures ASAP. Either post here or I can send you my email. Thanks in advance

I had the same problem on my 195CK. The front bunk leaked a lot. Water would pool up along the track if the ends were blocked and go over it in the corners where the seals shrank. It then dripped into the front storage and rotted the floor. My seal clips were all rusted out as well and a replacement seal was rediculous money, if you could find one. I no longer have the trailer but if I remember correctly the flap part of the seal angled forward so that it sealed against the bunk end when closed up. I glued it back in place and caulked the ends, repaired the rot and sold it asap. It was a great trailer otherwise but the leaks drove me crazy.
