Well,OEM is the best,(if you can afford them)but their is a lot of company's out their that have them.Some better than the other.I got mine from 1A the whole complete kit(Metro) and I had no problems whatsoever,but some people don't like them.

Stay away from OER brand. If you can afford the original GM, go for it, but if not, Soffseal and Metro are good. It seems most problems arise from poor installation. I used a variety of different companies for my weatherstrip and was happy with most of it.

Jegs sells a complete Soffseal kit for $415. about $100 cheaper than Soffseal's own website.

check out http://www.1aauto.com/1A/Weatherstri...amaro/-/-/1992 you should be able to find everything you need. They use metro brand which is what most people prefer as far as aftermarket weatherstrip from what i've read.
