+1 It's a quick job and not difficult to do. A 100' roll will do every seam on a 179.

I am looking for the rubber bulb and flap seal that goes around the sides and top and bottom of the slide out for a 178.Any suggestion where to find some and is it easy or difficult to replace?
Thanks in advance for any help

If I recall correctly, the bulb and wiper are in a track and it would likely be easier getting the old one out of that track than to get the new one in. However, I don't think it is too awfully complicated. Search Amazon and see if any of those are a match for what is there.
