My wife and I replaced the door gasket in no time. After letting the adhesive dry for about 45 minutes we tested the door and we were finished. A perfect fit.
Had to buy some high temp glue. Glued it in place.

Easy to install but not easy to remove the old seal glue. It Takes time to scrap all the old glue off the dryer door from the old seal.

easy to install

Took about 10 minutes to install. Beware that the seal is slightly stretched on and can pop off taking the high temp glue with it. If it pops off you will be spending time cleaning up the glue. WD40 and Goof Off should help to get it off though

No high temp glue included

The installation requires high temp glue; none was included ... nor referenced in the description of the door seal. Sears Parts wanted $17 or so to ship some; I found some locally for $5.
