26/27 fuel lid
So how does this rubber gasket attach? Which way is up?

You have it right, the spring wire goes under the hinge.

Re: 26/27 fuel lid
Do it from on top.
Use a bar to wedge the spring leaf away from the lid so you can assemble it and get the screws in with the lid vertical.
I did it last week so I had a piece to take to get paint matched.
