Did I mention that Squareback rear hatch seals are not available? OTOH, the WCM catalogue lists this part for $119.00 I did NOT call them because I do not have $119.00 plus shipping to spend on this seemingly insubstatial auto part. I mean, for two of those, I could get a rebuilt transmission :-) I understand neither the pricing nor the availability of VW rubber. I also cannot believe there is no "generic" "stuff" from JCW or even AutoZone (ugh) that will be the poor man's fix for both door seals and window seals. Hopefully someone will interject, and say "but... I have these for $32..." :-) This happened on the type2 list about Westfalia poptop lid seals. Several of us are getting new camper an luggage rack seals for something like $40. That's really swell. We need something like that for type3 door seals and window seals with the chrome runner. I would have no problem with the Cal-Look rubber IF ONLY ALL THE Chrome were not so !@#$%^& immaculate! :-) It's the glass that's disintegrating. If I can get a snapshot of it to scan I'll show you. It's kind of pretty. The glass is making these swirlies, kindof eating away from the inside out. Bizarre. Thus endeth my rant. We now return to your regularly scheduled monotony :-) -- g-r-a-t-e-f-u-l-l-y---[ email:<fishbowl@conservatory.com> ]---l-i-v-i-n-g d-e-a-d-i-c-a-t-e-d---[ http://www.conservatory.com/~fishbowl ]-----l-i-g-h-t Why is it that we rejoice at a birth and grieve at a funeral?
