door gasket for '96 Excella

I ran a search & I'm not finding the info I need.
Our existing entry door gasket has separated up on the top corner, allowing water to seep through during a downpour...it looks like the underlying foam material is falling apart.. I'm guessing it can't be reglued, correct me if I'm wrong. Do we need to replace the whole thing? If so, where do we get the gasket? An earlier thread mentioned that they used the same type of gasket from way back all the way through to the mid 90's... but nothing on the newer gasket material.

Many Thanks Kelly

The entrance door gasket must be one piece, and seamed at the bottom of the door.

We, along with a few other Airstream dealers, carry that gasket in stock.

Make sure you install the new gasket with a "super adhesive" only.
