Thoughts--too hard to do and unnecessary for the purpose. Biggest issue with a single piece gasket would be the need to disconnect all the wiring just to replace the gasket. So buy the gray, closed-cell gasket [not the cheap white ones]; split the gasket at the corner seam to get around the wires; reseal corner and add a bit of sealant to the rood surface. I use two gaskets stacked to accommodate drain cups/lines, outside wires, etc. Also use rubber blocking on parameter of roof unit to evenly support unit and not crush gasket. Tighten hold-down bolts slightly--like 20-30 INCH lbs.
