I just replaced mine with one from West Coast Metric I ordered a year ago, which I think is also what the Bus Depot sells. It took me that long to get around to painting my top!

It is two pieces and works fine. The flat top seal has no metal clips in it so it has to be glued, but the perimeter "bulb" seal has aluminum teeth and grips well. There is no need to have a one piece seal, this looks and works great, and it should last a long time. You may not even need to replace your flat seal if it is not torn.

I think only the megabuck OEM seal is one piece, and it uses steel clips that rust out.
