I am missing the top portion of the windshield seal (top and sides one piece combo unit)

according to Pelican, they now have a properly manufactured unit that will break upon installation (if assembled correctly I'm guessing, LOL)

anyways, has anyone tried this one yet?

how do the "bad" seals fail when brand new? anyone with a brand new torn seal that wants to sell it at a good discounted price??

I have no top seal at all and I'd like to drive my car in the rain.....

What? Is that a typo? Did you mean "a properly manufactured unit that will" NOT break?
