Subject: Re: Weatherstripping Sucks by lenferg on 2008/4/5 21:42:56 I feel your pain. Redid my weatherstrip last year as my "big project". Verrry time consuming. Requires lots of patience. I did do some homework before I started which made the project go much smoother. I knew what to expect and got some tips/tricks and things not to do. Some info came from this very site in its old form. Some came from other forums and sources. I used a kit from Willcox Corvette that many recommended, $380. The quality, fit and finish was really good. Car is much tighter and seals up well. No drips while driving in rain. Have to be gentle while washing around door glass but that is typical even with factory stripping. I treat with dielectric silicone grease every 3-4 months. Keeps the squeaks to a minimum, helps seal the car and protects the stripping from cracking/deteriorating. Overall very pleased with how it turned out.
