Where can I get new/cheap weatherstripping?
My weather stripping was BEAT so I had to remove it around the doors by the glass. I'm interested in getting a new piece for the windshield as well.
Everywhere I look is ridiculous with the prices.
'87 IROC, hard top.

Summit has a lot of it pretty cheap.

The hardtop kit is 50$ cheaper than hawks.

Year one, your local GM dealer (AC Delco stuff is the best), or eBay.

Re: Where can I get new/cheap weatherstripping?
What company makes them with the plastic stiffeners in the ends that screw to the doors? I have used the ones without and they just don't fit right...

Re: Where can I get new/cheap weatherstripping?
I got mine from 1Aauto but you also need to change the roof rail weatherstripping to create a tight seal and push the window up against the window sweeps. I learned that the factory window sweeps like to sag against the window and the new ones had a HUGE gap between them and the window...but when I installed the new roofrails...they closed that gap and created and tight seal for the window sweeps as well. Happy I went with 1AAuto...

Re: Where can I get new/cheap weatherstripping?
Hey Tony, glad you could join the thread. I like the 1A prices and the quality seems good. I'll give you a call when I'm ready to buy. I'd like to piece together all the correct weather stripping that I'm looking for.

Re: Where can I get new/cheap weatherstripping?
how are your aftermarket weatherstriping kits? how do they compare to GM? Ive heard aftermarket kits dont really fit as well as gm does, I dont know how true that is.

Re: Where can I get new/cheap weatherstripping?
I got my full hardtop kit from summit. I paid 200 shipped for the whole setup.
That included both doors,windows and the trunk seal. Fit was awesome and no more leaks!
I believe the kit was made by SuperSoft.
