[T3] windscreen rubber

[Phil Hof]

Both seals are available in non-OEM reproductions from ISPwest, for example.
I say non-OEM because although they take the factory metal trim, they are
smaller in profile than the originals.  In other words, if you took a cross
section of the rubber, you would find there is less material than in the
original seals.

No one makes original-profile rubbers that I know of, although ISPwest said
they may begin making them late this year.  What is available is made from
Bug window seal extrusions, made in Type 3 lengths.  The Bugs always had the
thinner rubber.

I have the same issue with their rear-side glass seals-- they are smaller.
However, I am using them and they look and seal fine.  99% of owners may not
notice the difference.
