These did not fit my 68 FB. They were over 2 inches to long.

To all potential buyers of this roof rail weatherstripping set, or any for that matter, please take the time to read the response below that we received from Daniel Carpenter....
"Over
time rubber shrinks, especially sponge rubber so it is best for a seal of this
length to at least be one inch too long.
We
actually have to let it sit for 30 days once it comes off the extruder
before we cut it up for molding because it can shrink 5% in the first 30 days.
Have
you ever pulled out a 30 year old NOS seal and find that it's 4" too
short?
It's
just really odd that we have not had this come up before in
many years, unless I just have not heard about it.
It
is always best to install both ends and then go back to the center and work it
in and rubber compresses also so it would easily take up the slack."

As a follow-up to a previous review, I took the advice of the manufacturer and started at both ends and worked my way to the center ( before gluing). Spread the compression out over the entire length of the rubber. Fits great now! Thanks NPD and Daniel Carpender for the assistance. I highly recommend this product now.
