Pay the difference and go with WCM.
My opinion after receiving hood VW emblem seals (the three plastic plugs) that were 10mm when the original is 12 mm and my emblem didn't sit flush with the hood. WW advise was to cut the bottoms of the plugs off but since I needed new plugs because one was ripped at the bottom and allowed water into my trunk I didn't think that was a good idea. WCM's seals are 12 mm.
AND my gas tank sending unit seal I got from them was way too thick and would not let the screws engage with the tank.
My 2 cents.
