Steele has a lot of self-adhesive profiles. Is there a kit? A recommended thickness?
Thanks.

The conventional cab door seal might work for 80% of the door and then just fill in the curve of the wheel opening...

one door takes around 14 feet.
the have two sizes
one is thicker than the other.
hope this helps
