You could always take it to a good 928 mechanic to fix it - wait you are THE 928 mechanic.

Someone around here needs to learn how to work on these so I can relax a bit.

Default DOOR GASKET RUBBER

Hello ,what i found out is that the corner rubber is very thin and will split as the door closed over time. I use silicone black sealant over the it in a thin coat to protect it from future splitting use your finger to spread it in a thin coating. Do it both sides. upper top...

I hate door seal replacement. Right up there with a clutch job on a 944.

Never did a seal on a 928 though. Are they easy?

I can't even afford to replace seals. You are fortunate.
