Factory seal has a mastic bead to stop capillary action pulling water into the carrier and into the the car Don't know if it is an issue or just Porsche overkill. |

The new one is a good tight fit, if that helps. |

you wouldn't see the mastic until after fitting so it may be there, take a close look to see if any white goo has spilled from the joint for confirmation of it's existence. £20 is very cheap though so perhaps there isn't any on this seal. Pete |
