DOOR Weatherstripping; Should I go with the Clip style or the Adhesive style?

Hi All,

I need to replace my doors' weatherstripping. I'm looking for feedback about which type people have had good luck with.

I've been looking on Ebay and have seen a set for $58.00 that appears to need adhesive to install (example below)

I've also seen a set for about $30.00 more after shipping that installs with built in clips (example below)

This is a new/first third gen for me, so I'd like to hear your opinions and thoughts about one over the other to help me make a decision.

Thanks in advance!

I've had the door stripping that attaches with adhesive on my Pontiac for about three years now, no problems.
