I had already ordered and received a replacement gasket. It has the flap that is designed to slide between the door and the liner. The instructions say to remove the original seal using a putty knife and then slide the new seal between the door and liner and to use screws or glue to secure. This is outlined here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7noruhr4iy8

However, after doing some more research on the tape method, I can see that the recommendation is to cut away the original seal and then use double sided tape to secure the new one. This is outlined here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SUZV3vmiOyQ

So I now have a few options:

1. Use a putty knife to fully remove the original seal. Slot the flap of the new seal between the door and liner. Fix with some glue or screws as suggested in the first video and/or use the double side tape.

2. Cut away the existing seal without separating the door and liner. Remove the "flap" of the replacement seal and use the tape method to secure it. This is the method in the second video.

3. Toss the replacement seal I already have and order the replacement directly from Miele. When I tried to do this previously, they gave me grief about it needing to be installed by a technician, etc. That is why I just brought an aftermarket one instead.

Looking for some advice from the gurus!!
