I have to replace both seals on our hatches too but have not yet ordered the parts.
The parts have not been ordered yet but I sent hatch serial numbers and the email response is posted below.
One is newer than the other and uses the "D" shaped seal which I am also going to use on the older hatch.
Hopefully this helps.

Keith,

Thank you for your inquiry. Part number 1172160 is $7.50 each. The “d” shaped foam is part number 8354000. The cost is $4.50 per foot. We also charge a $25.00 handling charge plus shipping.

The parts for the older hatches are obsolete and no longer available.

I should probably look at the original dates before I respond to a recent post.
Glad to hear the "D" seal worked.
