Title: PGW glass or URO seal, which one is wrong size ?
Post by: DanOKC on June 20, 2015, 10:42:38 PM

Before I remove my cracked windshield to replace it, I wanted to make sure my new URO brand seal would fit the new PGW made in China glass.
It doesn't. Either the URO seal is inch to long, or the glass is too small.

Anyone have experience with either of these ?

Good thing you checked!

I have no idea personally, but I need to replace mine too. Your post is very timely.

I dunno, but I have always heard that the OEM windshield gasket was the one.  When I did my windshield a year or two ago that was what I ordered and it fit like a glove.
