Actually I'm starting to remember some more. I seem to recall that the
original factory ones that were in my door either bowed out a little, or
they were thing enough that the flexed. And, the ones that I got at one
point were straight and were not flexible enough. So the metal clip, which
normally snapped out, had nowhere to go. So it didn't hold the door panel
in place. I no longer recall if I got them from Rick or somewhere else
first, and then got from Rick.
The one thing I've learned for sure is that Rick had the best, and most
likely to work. Unlike VB which always seemed to have it wrong. This is
from rubber, to clips to carpet. On the back of Rick's catalog (at least
years ago), he showed the difference between his headlight bucket gasket
versus the other ones out there. There was a huge difference. Yes, his
price was a little higher. But it was worth it.
