Default Trunk weather seal

I've seen a lot of posts about leaky trunks. Has anyone replaced the trunk weather seal? It looks like a one piece weather strip. I did some RTV work to it today and I'm gonna see how it goes from here.

I had a lot of problems with water intrusion in the trunk. For me, it was lose spoiler bolts and a bad weather seal. I pulled up most of the seal, cleaned it throughly and applied A LOT of RTV. Been nice and dry every since. Best way to see if where water is coming from is to climb in the back seat and look through the pass-through with all the trunk panels removed and have someone run a hose over the back end.
