Window stabilizer/felt help ASAP

I have ordered new inner and outer window sweeps and I figured I would replace the felt stabilizers while I am in there.... old ones are dried up and crappy feeling.... My question is... Classic Industries is showing two different versions of these.... I have a 1985 Z28.... will the cheaper of the two work on my doors?.... or not..... also if someone knows a cheaper place these can be had brand new lmk.....

88-92 version

Have you noted that the 82/87 version isn't available?

through them, yes I did see that, however I found another source for them.... Just want to know if the cheaper ones will work on my model.

While I can't say with certainty that they will fit, I can say that GM made some improvements to the doors around 88, so the cheaper versions may actually be the best choice. Check the pic of this 88 (sure looks like the earlier version).
