Dukman - Thanks for the tip. I used Corvette Rubber on an 80 a few years ago, excellent product. |saluteflag| |cool|

Yes it is. The most important thing about replacing it is to make sure you get a good adhesive remover. That makes the job go a heck of a lot easier. Saved me about 2-3 hours easy!!!

Thanks for the update. I am replacing the new weatherstrip I got from a discounter. I will call Corvette Rubber when I get back to home base next week. Anyone buying weatherstrip, I only have one thing to say: You get what you pay for, and nothing else.

So I can not get the top of weatherstripping to fit door properly, the rubber mount that goes on front of door is not deep enough to sit down properly and does not come close to screw holes. I ordered supposedly guaranteed to fit kit oh couple of years ago would have to look up manufacturer, but I do know it is made in usa, made sure of that not imported stuff, so don't know what t o do. If i order new door seals from corvette rubber am I going to have same problem

Can you get a pic of the weatherstrip where it's supposed to fit that location?
