Hi SWISCO,
I have old vinyl windows that has the Foam filled with a plastic "T" base weatherstripping. They are pretty beat up and need replacement. Should I replace with foam filled or wool with center vane strip? My windows do not seem to have a consistent gap so maybe the wool would fill the inconsistent void better than foam filled?
I attached two pictures if you could help me with size please. I think I also need two sizes because some windows have larger gaps than others...ugh
Thanks for any help!

Hello, Vincent. We don't have this exact seal but I have found two wool pile weatherseals that may work for you. Look at our 58-022, which is 9/32" high, and our 58-126, which is 11/32" high. What do you think of these options?
