bubble weather stripping for a Hurd window
Hi. My weatherstripping for Hurd windows appears to be like the bubble seal you have, but the diameter of the bubble is more like 3/16" (old and hard to tell:-) Is there a reason I couldn't use the 5/16"?

Questions about the 58-164
How long is the 58-164 strip? Do you have one that does not have the tongue on it for the groove in the window? Also, does it have self adhesive mounting tape on it?
