Andy:
Here is what I did. I installed it so that the ends came together at
the "top" (front of the boot). My reasoning was that I did not want exhaust
fumes seeping into the trunk through the gap. OK, that is being pretty
paranoid, but that was my reason. I never promised it was a *GOOD* reason.
Anyway, my thinking was that when cruising, the TR6 Kamm back would
draw exhaust fumes into the boot. I know that the rear lip of the boot lid can
corrode badly for the same reason - at least that is what Roger Williams
claimed. Hence my paranoia. The TR250 has the TR4 rear end, so dunno if it
applies or not. Anyway, that is what I did on the 6.
I suppose that water draining off the body and around the boot might
be forced by gravity to seep through the seam if it were at the top. So both
the top and the bottom might be BAD. Oh, HECK! How about putting it ON THE
SIDE? =:-o

Subject: [6pack] TR250 boot rubber seal
Hi everyone:
I've been making little bits of progress each night putting my TR250 back
together. I'm ready to install the rubber seal of the boot but I have a
question. Should the ends come together by the latch or at the top. I'm
guessing at the latch, but I don't remember how it was before it was
removed. Thanks in advance for the help.
