I'm replacing the front & rear windshield gaskets/lock strips on my 85 325e. I was ready to purchase the shadowline stuff. Then I impulse-bought a set of early model gaskets and strips (chrome) because I got a great deal, thinking I'd just paint the lock strips with trim paint. Now I'm having second thoughts, and would like to buy the late model black lock strips for a better quality solution.
Problem is, the early and late model gaskets are different part numbers, almost as if they also changed the trim design when they switched to shadowline.
So my question is, if I buy shadowline lock strips, will they fit properly in my early model gaskets? Or do I need to buy late model gaskets to go with them?
