Re: weather stripping

I'd also like to know who's had good experience with other brands besides the dwindling supply/highly priced OE stuff that's still floating around out there.

really? I find that Hawks is the cheapest when it comes to the t-top weatherstripping. Hawks at $259 Others, upwards to $400.

Re: weather stripping

lol yea... I can justify t-top strips at that price, not run of the mill hard top, its just rubberized foam for god's sake, not rubberized gold lol

If you click on the link that I posted,it will bring you to our current pricing.There are also different kitted options,depending on what your looking for.

Some kits are just the t-top seals, and some do an entire t-top or hardtop car.Shipping is free on everything we sell,and there are no hidden packaging fees.

Hawks kit only comes with the t-top seals and drip rails, the $400 kits come with t-tops,drip rails, doors(door seal and inner/outer window), and hatch, $259 for just the t-tops is about right anywhere you buy could be a little higher or lower depending on where your getting them from and the quality, just for everybody's information

plus as stated 1A has free shipping! you gotta love the deals Tony and Dan bring to Thirdgen.org!
