Vent window rubber

Has anyone bought the vent window rubber from LMC, 49-9350? Its half the price of everyone else.

I wonder why...

Dennis Carpenter's rubber for these fits like a glove and has all the correct features for the screws and wing-window shaft.

Post parts

Kusto, can you tell me if the LMC vent rubber looks like the original. DC stuff is nice but over priced. I bought some parts from another vender, was chaper then DC but came packaged with the DC label on the item. Go figure.

LMC stuff not terrible, does not fit as nice as DC. rubber is not as nice a compound and will not last as well. If you are in a humid area, not a problem most likely, but arid area, not so good.
