That is how mine was originally and how I did the replacement. It
wouldn't stay in place until I did some serious gluing. Ordinary
contact cement/weatherstrip cement wouldn't hold it. In the end what
worked was a polyurethane glue. I used the Elmer's version -- Gorilla
Glue may be similar stuff. The surfaces have to be wet and the stuff
kind of foams and definitely oozes out as it sets. I found the excess
is easier to remove before it hardens.
