Reputable websites for interior kits?

So, I have had some seriously bad luck buying trim and weather stripping for my third gen. The door trim I purchased for the top of the panels came literally with damage already done at the clip sites from too much pressure, ended up not fitting. I bought those from 1AAuto, the other thing is weatherstripping failed after a year, don't remember where I bought it. I am looking for A wiring harness which is the only thing I cannot buy from a local store as well as a new dash pad, tons of components to do an engine swap and most of all, weatherstripping and new door trim!

I found most of what I needed on Hawksmotorsports, I know they are obviously legit but how is the quality on their trim pieces? Any personal experiences?
I was also wondering if Jegs, CamaroCentral, or summitracing are legit, anyways let me know thanks!

I got Steele brand weather stripping and did not have good luck with ti. Looks okay by appearance but leaks like a sieve around the doors for some inexplicable reason. The next one I'm going to try is Fairchild Industries. They seem to get good word on this forum and are used by some of the more experienced people.

I have always had good luck with Camaro Central...no complaints with their stuff... They usually do a good job with the descriptions....

And if I can get from RockAuto... I usually start there....
