Had a mailing from JK that they have sourced different rubbers (amongst other things) after feedback on previous ones, don't know if anyone has tried the newer ones and whether they are an improvement.

usually get pretty good reccomendations for front and rear screen seals.

Does this apply to all the glass rubbers? That is get them from Emporium? partsemporium.co.uk

I'm going to replacing all my window rubbers over the next few months and from previous experience, badly fitting rubbers are a complete pain.
