Hi m75,
People seem to like the door outer seals made by Corvette Central.
Be aware that the seals are slightly different for coupes or convertibles.
(It has to do with their length.)
Regards,
Alan

Hi m,
There are 2 parts to the strip…...
One is the rubber part with just a small stainless steel bead that runs along it's length.
The other is a long piece of stainless steel trim that sits tight up against the edge of the fiberglass.
Be certain you oder the correct part.
Regards,
Alan

There is only one company making the correct felts... One is supplied by PUI and they are generic, the other is supplied by a different supplier and they work every time.

We pull the generic felts from sales because they would drag the glass so hard that if you have power windows the wouldn't allow the window to run upwards..
