1A Auto - Seals
I've talked to Tony on here beforehand, I'm just asking others on here to see what their experiences were with the new stuff they offer (Not the original OE materials). Any issues? Tony seemed very honest about things so I'm really not horrendously worried, I just want to be educated on what I'm getting before I receive it more than anything. Car's leaving for paint next week and it needs weatherstripping replaced. Here's what I'm looking at, for reference:

I used that same kit on my 91. No complaints, it fit pretty well. The doors will be hard to shut for a few weeks until the seals get broken in. Hard to beat for the money, I'd buy them again considering the cost of the GM seals.

Re: 1A Auto - Seals
I would advise using "Fairchild" seals. Every Fairchild seal I've used was better quality than the comparable METRO or SOFSEAL part. Fairchild INCLUDES the plastic inserts that other brand neglect to engineer into their design.
I don't know what brand 1A Auto is selling - but I only use Fairchild unless I HAVE to use another brand.
I got some very reasonably priced Fairchild doors seals about a month ago:

Let me admit,..... as I write this I'm looking over a pair of new hardtop METRO roof/window seals and they appear to be good quality. ( I could not find them by Fairchild ) These however are not dependant on a molded plastic insert like the T-Top seal or the door seals.
