Once the cabin cover work was done, we installed the door seals - the original slot for the seal slanted "tabs" had been formed with the seals themselves, and it was basically impossible to get it in again, so we opened up those slots to let the tabs snap in, then installed the seals with some RTV to help hold them in place:
 |
| Carved-out slots for the door seals |
 |
| Making the McMaster seal go into the slots |
Once the RTV on the seals cured, we attached the doors and door struts:
 |
| First door permanently installed |
 |
| First door permanently installed |
 |
| Both doors permanently installed |
Next up is installing the windows.
