Message	the seal he includes is "made in china" and while a good seal, is about 1/2" TOO SHORT! The other 3 parts (corners and long seal) are OEM Nissan. The glass company the installed the seal on my Z said there is a risk of the glass breaking....sure enough, it broke when they tried to remove it. (Luckily another shop in Denver had a OEM New old stock one for $249 so they had it installed a few hours later). The OEM parts fit perfect. The long rubber "made in china" seal fits like crap. It is "wavy" and is 1/2" too short. The installers may have something to do with this, but basically I'm S.O.L. unless I can get someone to replace it again without breaking my brand new rear glass. I'm not knocking Coz, as he's great and I've spent tens of thousands of $$ with him, but just be aware that this seal may give you problems.
