          Most of the wrinkling goes away when it is laid out. I doubt it'll be an issue when installed.

              Okay good.

              couldn't contain the excitement when I opened the package lol. So good to have an OEM replacement after all these years.

                I took a quick look at the top of the seal where the rear vent window meets the front door. The internal shape of the molding looks identical.

                    The install isn't horrible. The worst part is probably the small bracket that retains the seal at the rear of the trim piece. You need to remove a rivet that holds the bracket in place. I tried silicone lube and sliding the seal in without removing the bracket but after 15 minutes of fiddling with it I decided to just remove the rivet, install the seal and then rivet the bracket back into place.
                    Overall the seals feel like OEM quality and the wavy rubber does not show once reinstalled. I do have a bit of gap between the seal and trim but that could be due to my lack of skill or the fact my trim pieces are 20 years old and slightly warped.

                      This year is just full of surprises, this was the last part I expected to ever exist.

                      Is the cheaper price via email USA only? I'm in Australia, happy to buy through ebay at the higher price as it's still thousands less but worth asking first.

                        Seller is in Lithuania. Pretty sure he will ship to you at the GB price.

                          You should ask the seller. The quote was for shipping to USA. Should be about the same

                              How much was the total delivered to Australia? I’m thinking of getting a set too
