BTW, where did you pick up the seal? Remember HBL told me the one I got from Pelican was the wrong seal. (I doubt it.)
Bill, I bought my replacement from a guy on Ebay a long time ago. It was still in the bag with a Porsche part number label on it, so I presume it was factory original. Even so, these things fit so bizzarely on the window (especially around the curved portion of the front of the rear window). You have to use tape to hold the front portion on during the install, and even then parts of the seal will want to walk off where they belong.

When you get your new seal, put a bunch of dishwashing soap and fill a bathtub with water and soak the seal in it. After a time, go around the entire seal with a scrub brush to clean the mold-release stuff off. I also used a popsicle stick to get into the various flanges and grooves.
