I agree with Jay, Rick=E2=80=99s parts are the best
available, even though they might not be
100%. Yes, I recall that the originals were
thin, flexible Tupperware type plastic.
I think they are used just to block the
inevitable water that gets in the door cavity.
The metal panel clip needs to be able to=20
expand the plastic on the backside to keep
it from just sliding back out, so if Rick=E2=80=99s are
too thick/strong, they won=E2=80=99t work right.
