Thank you for the positive comments. Just a quick note that the ones sold by
GoWesty and others are NOT the same as ours. Ours is specially designed for
the Vanagon poptop, and is available only from us. Most of our compteitors
ship an off-the-shelf generic weatherstrip which looks similar to ours at
first glance, but has several significant differences. The biggest is that
theirs requires you to glue the front poptop seal section to your poptop,
whereas ours attaches by way of a metal clip without any glueng. Our
insulation bulb is more accurately located relative to the original design,
for a better seal. Our luggage rack seal is specially designed allow proper
rainwater drainage (and prevent rust under the luggage rack). Finally, our
seals have a smoother, closer-to-stock finish than most others.
