Be careful not to scratch the sides when you're taking the seal out, thats all i can think off.

you need a socket thats the same size as the seal so you can hammer it in evenly

I just did mine a few days ago, and you can use the old seal and a rubber mallet to seat the new seal. I saw that used on an install on some 240 site.
