Side by side of the header secondary seal. The OEM is stiff and deformed from years of crush when top is closed. The legendary seal looks closer to the OEM.

The main header seal
The Classic seal is longer than the Legendary

The Classic seal interface is a bit more irregular

The material of the Classic header seal is an open cell neoprene like material while the Legendary look like a solid rubber.

Looks like I didn't take a photo but it looks like the two in this image ( both sets have some solid rubber and neoprene seals, not sure why, back window vs front window?)

Because the main header seal is solid rubber I'm going with the legendary seal kit.

Unfortunately my OEM seal parts are at the top installer, so i can't do a side by side.

When I get the car back I'll update this post.
