I'll have to go and look at what brand I bought. I know it wasn't Porsche... have been totally satisfied with them though.

Why go Porsche brand if OEM is so affordable?

I went with the OEM Seals.
They were incorrect for my year but still function just fine!

I have had bad luck with non Porsche brand seals.
I know I am being OCD but have found items to be a little smaller/ larger than stock, the shape is slightly off etc. Have spend so much $$ on this project - the diffrence in cost is hard to justify atg this point. |

I did URO and even after a year and cleaning out the rails extremely thoroughly the doors still take a bit too much effort to close
Going to redo them with Porsche or OEM |

I guess you can look at it from the perspective of the downside of a bad seal.
Maybes Door won't close right Water leaks Air leaks |
