I sell the 3-sided poptop seal for $49.95, and the luggage rack seal for
$14.95.  When I say "3-sided," I mean that it does not include the flat
seal that goes across the top leading edge of the poptop (where it comes
down and meets the luggage rack).  I do sell this flat seal separately for
$29.95 (although I'm temporarily out of stock on it), but usually you can
re-use yours, since it typically does not wear out as quickly as the other
part does.  Regarding the seal that McMaster-Carr sells, it is indeed the
same "off-the-shelf" seal that JC Whitney sells.  But it is not the same as
my seal, which is custom-made.
