No but they are a tight fit.  I've never even heard of any significant
amount of dirt accumulating there, nor have I heard of a poptop seal that
had a lip there.  Basically it's a non-problem as far as I'm concerned.  Of
course the poptop seal does have an insulation bulb toward the inside, but
this does not appear to be what you're referring to.

They are for square headlights and cover both beams.  If they discolor I
have never heard of it from customers who have bought them over the years.

Yes, it's very bad. I am actively, and increasingly desparately, seeking
more employees.  Right now there are four of us (two part time) doing the
work of seven or eight, having lost two employees after the summer.  Until I
get a couple more people on board, you may experience minor difficulty in
getting through on the phone, and some orders may take about one day longer
to ship than usual.  I am interviewing people this weekend, so with any luck
the situation will improve by next week.  Meanwhile, if you know of anybody
looking for a VW related job in the Philadelphia area, please send them my
way!
