Lower Dash/Heater Duct Top Plate Seal.

I have reconditioned a replacement lower dash/heater duct and I now need to refit the top plate & cable.

The foam is in surprisingly good condition, but I don't want it out again in a hurry, so which non-setting sealant are people using when refitting that top plate please?
TIA

I used closed cell camping mat, cheap.
I also figured that it would help the heat stay a little hotter to the drivers side

So that's what it look's like in there

Not quite.
There's a bar with two flaps on it and four spring plates which are awkward buggers to fit - bent nosed pliers job, plus the cable and an annoyingly odd-sized trunnion.

Dunno was 20 yrs ago, at a guess 6 or 8mm? I also glued layers together for the heater box to bulkhead seal, around the gear levers(under the rubber thing) and under the brake master cylinder lid.
Oh, and on the heater box flaps inside the heater box.
The best stuff I used is blue and soft and warm to the touch , cheaper stuff is sort of plasticy and not as flexible/warm/soft.
