The rubber lip should curve towards the boot according to these images.

looks like they are a rare spares agent now...

could buy the betta auto rubber one https://betterautorubber.com.au/product ... boot-seal/

but it looks a different profile to the rares one

has anyone bought from oldautorubber.com in Penrith?

They were a Rares agent back then as well , they make their own door rubbers and as far as I know they still do.
I started with nothing and still have most of it left.

Better Auto rubber stuff is different to Rares for the most part - screen rubbers and doors especially.
They also do some of the harder to get stuff like the rubbers that go under the rear bumperettes on utes - they make an FB/EK one which fits perfectly.
