T-top weatherstripping
I had to get a new pair of t-tops since others were stolen. This set does not have good weather stripping on it. I don't want to buy one of those 200+ $ kits. I was looking and the generic weatherstripping the other day. Does any one know what size to get for just generic stuff the sell at auto stores?

From personal experience, if you're not going to buy GM/OEM w'strip... live with what you have now. Others will tell you the same.
If it makes you feel better, the t-top strips are sold seperately, you can check my sig for part #'s.
I have a link to gmpartsdirect.com in the parts pop-up for reference prices (*disclaimer... I'm neither a seller nor have any affiliation to them, I just provide the link for you to check pricing. I only scanned the guide #'s as a servce to all here) but, you can also buy wholesale from www.parts.com (www.newgmparts.com is the leading seller but, you can chose which you prefer to buy from @ parts.com)

Thanks, would it be part 10165500. Cause that only totals 20$, that's a good deal.

That should be it... as long as you're wanting the squishy seal that the door glass rolls up to.
Also keep in mind, your local dealership will sell for wholesale price (they do for insurance companies/body shops) but, you have to haggle and (using parts.com wholesale pricing) if you know what wholesale is, you can get it for that priice local.
They just like to screw walk-in customers (kind of like hospitals do to people w/o insurance).

Thanks a bunch deadbird and Abubaca. Only 27$ and some change at local dealership, now all I have to do is figure out how to install.
