Ready to mount body. Below is my plan. Welcome for suggestions from those who have gone before me.

Foam tape on engine compartment
Bulb seal on fire wall
Bulb seal on back wall behind seats and around trunk compartment
Remove dash
Install body
Check gap for dash and mark for trim as needed
Check gap for cubby behind seats and mark for trim as need for bulb seal
Remove body and trim where marked
Install dash
Reinstall body check and adjust as needed

If you install the bulb seal, then you won't be able to mark the aluminum to trim.

I was only leaving off the bulb seal from the rear wall of the cubby. In reading some posts others said it needed trimmed. Does all the metal that gets bulb seal need trimmed.

It does not all need to be trimmed and no bulb seal on the rear cockpit bulk head across the middle, only on the outside wings.
