New T-top seals don't look right
I got these OE GM seals, both side split in the rear from one of our favorite vendors. This does not look right.
I am guessing this must be some old inventory, so I am sending them back.
Has anyone else seen this with a new part?
Thanks

Re: New T-top seals don't look right
T top seals are assembled from a bunch of smaller pieces. That looks like it split at one of the seams. They are glued together, and you could probably get away with using some weatherstrip adhesive to fix it, but seeing as you probably paid top dollar for original GM, I would send them back.

I received an RMA from the vendor and they will be sent back.
Thanks for the response.
