FYI I ordered some neck trim from Webber's (WINDOW & AD GLASS RUBBER #RG102 "S" SHAPED RUBBER GASKET). Surprisingly I noticed they just changed the profile slightly from the original without mentioned it. The new profile is slightly thinner than the previous one I bought from them 2 years ago. The outside lip of the "s" trim cover less surface than their previous version what it makes this trim not very accurate anymore.

Cheers

PD:I can post some pics if you wish

Ok guys here we go, first thing just to let you know that I removed the inner lip from my old Weber's trim since I needed it for my ESB helmet so the profile looks like a U trim. Anyway the new "s" trim is clearly smaller.

Cheers
