Spareparts, thanks for the video but he is not doing it right, did you notice that? He is putting in the rubber seals then holding the thermostat up against it, the thermostat fits into a groove on the seal and he is not doing that but I think the top of the seal faces the short part of the thermostat , check out the video h he is doing it wrong. But thanks for posting it

You are correct Step, in the youtube video he is not installing the rubber seal as designed. The seal is supposed to be installed like a grommet around the flange of the thermostat (as you describe).

I believe the "hat" portion faces the shorter portion of the thermostat, but I will have to confirm that when I replace mine this Spring. The images on the internet are all over the place and are pretty useless.

Your right Duke, that video was a bad one and when you buy a thermastat(2) I got them sometimes with the hat facing up and down but I agree with you I think it faces the shorter part of the thermostat .

Check out Amazon I just looked for athermostat kit and they have pictures of them and some have it facing up and some have it ( the hat looking rubber) facing down , maybe it doesn't matter,
