Front Cowl deterioration! Which part on diagram?
I'm having a very common problem with our cars: the front cowl, where the front windshield and plastic meet, is deteriorating from being in the sun. I narrowed down the parts list on our sponsor page, but before I pull the trigger, I want someone who has purchased them to confirm for me. I need it for BOTH LEFT and RIGHT.

It should be 10 and 11. Price is pretty cheap.

while I'm at it...
I'm looking for the lower seal on the left rear door. Which number is it? 7?

Fortunately it is, and my goodness, it will make quite a difference.

Once you break off all of the crumbly rubber part, it looks fine...

Damn, based on parts.com dealer price, my dealer charges more than double list, but I've seen that on every part I've bought there. Guess I'll fix that for $30.
