Wiper stalk is different because of delay position. ...

I have no idea how good these are but Stag does appear to be mentioned a few times.

I think he means the knob.

The new seals are very good value imho but they are probably not the same as p6

One seal sold on ebay for £300 i think (before the new ones were available)
