Got a package from ISP today.

Here's a few shots of the new vs. old seals. The new one has more ribs inside for the seal, and the corners are definitely better. The rubber is also a bit more flexible.

Looks good. I will be ordering one soon. My wife an I are getting to be pros at installing this windshield. I thought it was just the install that was causing the leak...after several times re-installing and similar results, I just avoid heavy rain if I can. I will give one of these a try.

I'll be waiting to see how these install as well. The big thing for me is rubber that seals against the painted surface. My windshield chanel is very clean and painted a year ago. So I know it's smooth. My non-molded seal really shrunk up over this past year pulling away from the body of the car. I hope these have lots of rubber on them.

im interested too, my seal we had to trim off one of the ribs partially to get it to sit on the body correctly.
