That fits about right to be honest. None of them 'fit' There is always a gap even on the new ones. One of the reasons i never brought one

Out of the options, id go for the rubber thing around it

Yeah the rubber thing doesn't look too bad, but I am no expert.

We owners of the 1000s swap the rubber stopers from the seat hump with the ones from the seat as they are shorter and give the hump a closer fit. Try shiming it to get a good fit.

Yup. Though it sounds horrible, in the pic the rubber trim actually looks quite smart.

i have actually taken the rubber stops off complely to see if that makes a difference it did a little.

My vote's for the rubber trim. Looks OK.
