Default weatherstripping

Is it really going to cost $300+ for my 76, that seems outrageous for rubber! I was looking at Wilcox, where have you guys found yours?

I got mine for my 68 from Dr. Rebuild in Bridgeport Connecticut.
I have heard guys on this list also say good things about The Last Detail.
I've read and heard that most all of the weatherstripping is made by Corvette Rubber Inc. for most of the aftermarket vendors but I don't know if this is correct.

I'm pretty sure I paid about $300 for the full set from Corvette Central.
Quality was very good, had the shop install it. I think it was worth it.

We did a 77 a few years ago and it was about $176.00! It was coupe...$300 does sound awefully high.
