Is anyone a window gasket expert? At a bit of a loss

I have a rather niche conundrum and can't seem to find the answer. I want to replace the window gasket/ seals as they're grim, sticky, and mostly broken. I've ordered a couple of sample packs but none of them seem to fit our windows.

How else can I find what I need? I'll try to add a picture of our old ones (white) and one of the samples which are all so much smaller. I'm no window expert but I thought I was pretty good at Google, clearly not!

We had this done to the opening parts of our double glazing a few weeks ago.

I just asked a local glass merchant's to come and give a quote for it. They therefore sourced the right gasket style.

It's made a big difference draught wise.

Cost about £250 for the whole property (1500 sq feet with giant windows).

Take the strips into Screwfix or similar and compare them. I did ours a few years ago. Cost me less than £15 for the whole house including the doors.
