The Autosleeper side windows, although non-factory, need a wider recess for the metal than the usual non factory seal. (Ask me how I know!!)
If you buy the seals from MM he will supply you with the right ones - because he knows what he is doing. :ok

Midway through fitting the first one, you will wish you never started.
Having finished the 3rd one today it became quite enjoyable.
Persevere and allow plenty of time.
One thing I learnt was don't take it for granted that all the glass will be the same thickness. For some reason the central window on the drivers side was twice the thickness of the rear two???
