t-top weatherstripping
Anyone know where I can find T-top reproduction weatherstripping for an '87 Z with factory installed t-tops? Hawk's has them on back order with no ETA, just wondering if someone can point me to another vendor with comparable prices... would like to get a set pretty soon without shelling out big bucks for GM parts. Are the ones on eBay any good?

Sweet, thanks. Seems to be a problem with their checkout not accepting my credit card, guess I gotta wait 'til they're open Monday and call...

The service was good, for some reason they didn't ship mine out so I called them after a couple days and they shipped it expedited for no extra cost... got to me in Canada in three days.

What do you plan on moving to adjust how tight they are against the glass? I am having the same problem and water is getting into my door.

Re: t-top weatherstripping
There's that metal strip running parallel to the edge of the window, that the weatherstripping sits in. I'm going to take it off (3-4 screws) and widen the holes so it can sit further out and probably cut a piece of steel to sit underneath and shim it out.
