I stopped by VW again this morning and got the the friendly parts guy to dig through ETKA. As someone mentioned, there is no part number for the flap seals alone. There are part numbers for the flap assemblies, and I'm fairly certain that these would include the foam gaskets. Price was, ~$110 for one, ~$80 for another... I stopped there. They may not even be available. Wasn't going to spend the $$$ anyway. The box-to-car seals were under $10. Again, not sure on availability, but the weather-stripping I've found at HD seems to be a fine substitute anyway. Guess I'll keep looking... James V 90 Carat
