John,

Thanks for the response.

The one on the cover of the OCT. 2003 issue looks like it has an additional 
piece that the centerfold (Jan. 2004) does not have.  Looking closely at the 
cover photo, it looks like there is an extra piece
of stripping that  is not part of the beaded piece that goes around the 
opening, nor is it attached to the door (look behind and forward of the gas 
assist strut).  It looks like another piece that the rubber around the door 
meets when it is closed.  Maybe it is the lighting or the area is painted 
black,  but the others behind this car in the photo do not look like this.
