Door window frame weatherstrip (outer)

I just received my outer door window frame weatherstrip from MSA. The parts that I received do not look like the ones that came off the outer window frame. I'm not sure this is the right part even if it is roughly the same width and length. Pic 1 and pic 2 are the same piece bent double. Pic 1 is the new and pic 2 is the old. If you notice, however, the new one is shaped like a triangle and the old one is a little more square. Can anyone tell me if these are the proper aftermarket replacements? Here is a pic of the old vs the new.
Thanks alot
Dan

I just replaced mine and they are the same as you have. A definite improvement over the original. This area is a source for a lot of wind noise.

Thanks! They seemed like they would work ok. They were just different.
