    You need deep pockets for a genuine one. They are a couple of new ones in Europe but they are big money, way over 100 Euros.
    I bought a couple of non genuine ones of a window guy that comes into work and they look fine. Hard to tell the difference between gen and non-gen and they probably came out of the same factory.

    I rang around the local windscreen places and managed to find a guy who could get one, prob not gen but fitted fine and doesn't leak. I bought sealant but didn't use it and all fine 2 years on. Can't remember the company though. met him in a pub car park too, felt like a drug deal!

    sorry to go off topic for a mo simontw, but you reminded me of an old mate of mine, who when drunk would sing 'nights in white spirit' on karaoke
