I had to wash the inside ring and groove with soap to put it back in. It just kept popping out even with the slightest amount of grease on it, I couldn't even begin the process as shown in the video. As soon as it was dry and clear of grease it became much more like it seems to behave in the video.
To elaborate, the thin one goes on the "front" or main part of the housing, whereas the thicker one goes on the "back" panel. It's good to replace these as your budget allows. They easily stretch during maintenance. seafrogs.com.hk/products/spare-o-ring
What about the orings of all the buttons?

Thank you! This was the only way to get it back in - took me half an hour!! DO NOT TAKE THIS OUT UNLESS YOU NEED TO!
My seafrog housing didnt come with the silicone! Where I can get one?
Is it normal that one of the ring is thiner than the other?

How often should one replace orings?
Make sure you have their vacuum system to test for leaks after this job!
