there reply:
I have never installed one here with the molding so Im not exactly sure if it will fit perfect or not becasue the predrilled holes might be covered. If you decide to try it with the factory molding please let me know for future reference.
Thanks

Are you going to go with the molding or what type of sealant for water?

At this point, I'm really not sure. I'm hoping it will be possible to use the factory seal.
