Convertable weather-stripping it's a four letter word



I am working on weather-stripping for my 89 RS convert, just got a new top and I did get the rear bow but I need help on what to call all these parts. This is what I have found so far (Texas sun and rot)

1. Trunk seal
2. Rear Bow weather-stripping
3. Header weather-stripping (this is one piece? both sides and the top)
4. Roof rail weather-stripping (this is two parts on both sides?)
5. There is a block of weather-stripping in with the trim where the door and top meet? What is it called?
6. There is weather-stripping under the deck in the back. What is that called?

Going to have to replace all of it due to the rot and chunks missing, and yess that is duct tape on the plastic window. Soon I will have a roof over my head.
Thanks for the info, just want to make sure I know what I am looking for.

This GM F-Body Convertible Top aftermarket replacement weatherstrip kit includes the following pieces:

4 Convertible Top Roofrail Seals
2 Door Seals
1 Convertible Rear Bow Seal
1 Convertible Top Header Bow Seal
2 Front Window Triangle Seals
1 Tonneau Cover Seal (door that covers convertible top when down)
If your weatherstripping is causing leaks allowing damaging rain in, then this weatherstrip kit is for you. Why not replace your old, hardened, rotted seal with this new, ready to install weatherstrip set.

That's all the stripping for a vert with the exception of inner and outer window sweeps, the strip that go's across the hood (in front of the gutter) and the strip that go's around the tail lights. You should not need any of these anyway...

ordered my kit for just under $500. it's nice stuff and by far the cheapest that I could find. You may not need all the parts (I had no weather stripping at all), but you can get them separate. Call Tony
