Look in Hatches & Windshield Accessories, then look in Hatch replacement parts and you will find it there.

You must clean up old gasket surface really well first.

Now this isn't the original gasket we used but it’s the closest one available and it works real good.... Its a bit bigger but compresses nicely into the frame. Actually this is better than the original gasket we used. Remember during installation not to cut the gasket to the correct length until you are ready to glue the two ends together.

Start by sticking the gasket down in the aft middle part of the frame, and then continue sticking it around the frame allowing plenty of room for the gasket to bend in the corners. When you end up where you started, cut the excess off but leave it a centimeter too long and then crazy glue the two ends together. Take your time and think it through... It will turn out perfect!
