Window filler strip

Before removing my existing filler strip (black )with a chrome strip supplied by mMniSpares there is a difference in shape ,has anyone had a problem with this ?

First off, are you replacing your original? .if so DONT as the replacements that are available from any of the suppliers do not last very well, the strip of foil in them starts to crinkle.
But they are the same dimension and do fit ok.

Also, the ease of doing this will depend on if you have the right roller tool, and how old / stiff that rubber windscreen seal is...

They are what came with the car ,the seal is not stiff so probably not original based upon the picture it is clearly a different shape and larger
has anyone replaced with a similar strip?
