without the seals the doors are sweet, nice and true, flush all round, its
only now the seal is on, that the door bulges,
its almost like the seal is too hard and is deforming the door.

Craig,

Both my doors bulge about 3 mm at the center of the lower edge; this is
w/o the seals or plexi.
I've yet to do a trial fit with the seals.

Bud Yerly advised use of a heat gun to reduce the bow and eliminate the
bulge, saying that proper fit before installing glass is essential,
otherwise getting proper fit WITH the glass is quite difficult.
