Hey guys, i am going about installing my door panels and was wondering what type of adhesive is used to attach the water shields. I know it is a removable type stuff that is just really sticky, cause to can take them off and put them back on again. What type of stuff is this and where would i get it. Thanks a lot.

looks like windshield butyl tape to me, or something similar.

Never forget Earnhardt!
You can get 3M caulk strips at body shop supply stores and some auto part stores. They come in a box of about 60 lin ft in about 12" strips with wax paper backing (peel off, around $10. They are somewhat similar to the windshield caulking strips but cheaper and easier to use. Good for sealing the heater blower housing and wiper motor to the firewall too.

von, thanks for the advice. I just walked outside my office into the shop at the lexus dealership i work at. Asked a tech about the stuff and he happened to have a box and a half accumulated from jobs. Game me a box of the stuff. Thanks
