Which do you have? The stock pop out seal or rhe "cal look" seal?

It does if you're using the stock seal, but if you're using the "cal look" 
seal then the metal must be removed, and say good bye to the pop out window.

The new rubber covers most of it (shows about 1/4 inch of chrome), if you're 
using both pieces of rubber (inner and outer window frame seals).

>Is there an archive entry on this.

Can't say for sure, but it's probably beem covered, and therefore in the 
archives.

>Or maybe they just sent me the wrong rubber.

Possible, it wouldn't be the first time someone got the wrong part (different 
from what was ordered). I know I've gotten the wrong part several times. :O I 
hope this helps.
