Have you put both sets of windows next to each other to determine any 
differences in size? I realize that the pop outs have a frame around them, 
but they should be (with the frame) about the same size as the windows with 
out the frame or the rubbers. This would tell you whether or not you have the 
correct windows. Also did your "B" post have the slots for the pop out window 
"hinges"? It just seems odd that VW would change the size of the rear pop 
outs for a Notch body. I mean they were ending that body style in a couple of 
months, and they only did minor changes on that body style over the life 
span. I mean VW didn't change the size of the type3 sunroof through its 
entire production, why change the window size? I hope this helps and gets a 
few brains to start thinking.
