Measure the width, height and length. If a shape, sketch the profile and bring this information with you. Having a sample of the old gasket is even better. I am sure you can find material that is the correct dimensions for a lot less than a complete hatch. 1992 Outrage 17 I 2019 E-TEC 90, Viper 17 2+ 2018 Load Rite Elite 18280096VT

If it's not available I've seen the whole Hatch on the Net for $70. I hate to do it but that's probably the road I'll take. Be safe
