Sliding Door Seal Confusion (7E0 843 791 and 7E0 843 792)

My17 T6 Shuttle is out of warranty and the near side (Left) sliding door seal needs replacing. I thought I knew what part number I was looking for, but have just ordered/received the wrong one.

A number of eBay sites suggest their aftermarket seals are both 7E0 843 791 and 7E0 843 792. I have just received a 7E0 843 791 D VW-OEM seal, but it doesn't fit my shuttle interior, as the seal requires an additional flap(? left-hand side of diagram 7E0 843 792? below) of rubber to blend into the headlining/interior trim on the shuttle. I started to pull the old seal out and the part number is 7E0 843 792 (why didn't I look before!). Does anyone know if this is the main difference between the 791 and the 792 part i.e. 791 doesn't have the additional flap for PVs and the 792 does to suit kombis and shuttles? Any advice would be appreciated. I'll put the 7E0 843 791 D VW-OEM seal on eBay.....

How did you get on with this bud? I’ve the same issue. Was it the 792 part you needed.
