It was way too hard to get the glass in, and it didn't fit right. Does anyone have any experience with Vic's reproduction of the Bennett rubber? Does the glass go in easier? Does it fit better?

For the most part the rubber seals are bought from the same wholesalers and all the retailers sell the same stuff. Dave GILL, Dave's Garage & Memorabilia, Inc.
