I am trying to purchase the weatherstrip for the front doors of my '41 coupe. There was nothing left of the original to compare. Restoration Specialties sent me three samples. I understand there may have been a different thickness of weatherstrip on the bottom part of the door.

I have drawn the profiles of the samples. Does anyone know which, if any, of these is close to the original for the top & sides of the door and the bottom of the door? Each piece is about 5/8" wide at the bottom (flat) part.

Also, how do the tabs on the bottom of the door bend over the weather strip. Any pictures would be great.
