I'm just guessing at this point but I think that part reference is to the
vinyl trim that sews to the carpet rather than the rubber seal. It's
interesting that the rubber seals are not mentioned anywhere. I wonder what
the TR 6 books show?? It's the same stuff but without the leather covering
on the upper boot.
