A question "für die Experten".

According to all sources 7./JG53 flew the Bf109G6 when they were stationed at Comiso Sicily. I know there is some doubt whether they flew the G6/R6 Trop version or not but on none of the pictures from the aircrafts from this staffel I have seen gunpods.
However when I look at this picture ==> http://www.messerschmitt-bf109.de/displ ... ummer=1113 I clearly see the warning "Beim Schliessen der Kabine auf Vorderteil-Gummirahmen achten". To my knowledge the G6 didn't have a pressurised cockpit and was the rubber strip installed on the aircrafts with pressurised cockpits. So why is this warning painted here?
Thanks for any answer.....
