Aperture seal replace

[osx]

Has anyone tried to replace the aperture on a C5 X7? Do you need any tools, where do you start from, do you have to use silicone or something similar to secure the new one in place?

Shoot me, but, what is a weatherstrip? I'd like to believe I have it on my car as well, but probably know it under another name ... ...

Don't think you will have it without snow motion

Just kidding - its the rubber seal around the door

If it is what I'm thinking about, that is called door seal ... ...

That's the one but the part that is on the car body. Might be called aperture.

just what I needed! Lets see how long it will take.

It took about 2 hours but if I had to do it again it would take about one. Front pillar trim took me ages to put back. There must be an easier way.
