The wiper is the gasket that keeps the weather out of the coach on top of the slide under the topper is the rubber gasket

The gasket runs the length of the slide

I have no experience with this - I would imagine that the slide topper first needs to be removed. Exactly what does the wiper attach to?

I do know we pull the topper back which take 10 minutes then it exposes the rubber seal which is on top. It is the rubber seal that keeps the weather out of the inside

The seal then slides on problem is there is no way to reach it from the inside. I was hoping there is some sort of secret how to easily slide it on

Could you pull the topper back and then retract the slide enough so that you could stand on a ladder and attach the wiper gasket to the outside wall?

I actually tried that with not much luck. It's easy to get attached on the outside. Problem is getting it to file x perfectly on the inside
