Best place to get weatherstrip?
Hey all,
A minor annoyance has made itself apparent lately.
My windows aren't creating a seal against the body, so I am getting some wind whistling.
First question would be, would I need the little triangle bits that rest on the window AND a new window seal? Or just the triangle bits.
I will probably end up getting both, and my next question would be, where is the best place to buy some quality bits?
I see options at Hawks, Thirdgen Ranch, Camaro Central, and Summit.
Anyone have any experience with any of these retailers?
Thanks!

Re: Best place to get weatherstrip?
Before you replace seals, have you tried adjusting the t-tops (if applicable) and windows? I've always had a wind noise on the lower front corner of the passenger's window (near the triangle seal) that I can't seem to fix on mine. Have replaced all seals on the car except the rear hatch. Replacing the triangle seals (most obvious part) did nothing for me. Have spent many hours adjusting the window and t-tops with no luck. Only thing I can figure is something on my car is bent or otherwise out of spec. At any rate, try adjusting using this guide before purchasing, unless your seals are very dry, torn, or otherwise falling apart: https://www.thirdgen.org/windowadjust/
I had great luck ordering from Summit, went with Fairchild brand as suggested here. Everything came in a day or two, but I'm sure it helps that I live just over an hour away from Summit's warehouse.
