Yes the outer scraper on the late cars were superseded with the 911 profile.
Yes it's a more robust profile, but it also grips the glass more. This is even more true when it's new. So some have lubricated them, others have baked them both with some success, but the real problem is it was never really designed for the application. So you all know me I can't just leave something alone. we made a significant improvement to the product. See the seal that is like OEM below. Attached thumbnail(s) |

Don't forget about the 'U' guide in the vertical channels. F&R. Unless you've replaced them, figure they're 40 years old. Replace those shoddy end caps while doing the squeegees. All part of the system.

All part of the system. You are correct. I will put together special pricing for those that replace their scraper seals (and will put the other on sale too. May take me a day or two to get the listings up, but will make a nice set. Heck I'll even throw in a version to get the inner fuzzey too. You know, while you are there.......... |
