Re: weatherstripping

all your top brands are about the same if you can get a set made out of latex they will fit better then rubber ones

Re: weatherstripping

Not OER, its very stiff, doesn't seem to quite fit right, tears easy, did go from a half dozen leaks down to one, and for the cost its staying a while. Seems to me that in the time since I've seen SoftSeal recommended more than any other.

Re: weatherstripping

Ive changed mine twice with the soft seal brand. Nice fit, good price. I actually got them off Ebay.
