(WCM) T TH>Thom TH>-- Well not to differ but I have had great luck with bay window rubber from WCM and have always received excellent service and support from them, a friend was not nearly so happy with some Wolfsburg West stuff she recieved. I will concur on the stifness part though, particularly for the door seals, rear hatch seal from them would simply not work, too stiff to allow full closure. Front door seals better. IMHO go with whomever is listing the best price and a lifetime warranty as formulation for exterior stuff can be drastically different even lot to lot. WCM on my old '76 still looks great for current owner has been on the bus 4 years and was bought about 2 years before that if my memory serves me (it doesn't very often) John vwbus@tcpbbs.com
