I bought my metro door seals from them. No problems dealing with them, but i have heard good and bad on the fit and durability of the pieces. Mine have been in a box for over a year Someday

Don't know about that one, but here's where I got mine and I just got done about 2 hours ago putting the rear weatherstripping on around the hatch area. Fit like a glove. Only problem I have now is getting the hatch to close without slaming it, but it's brand new and I kinda expected that.

I also bought both door weatherstrips and have replaced the drivers side so far. Good fit.

I bought a set from them and the fit is great. Just put one piece on at a time and let it seat for a day or two, also putting on stripping is a very precise project. If you just slap it on you will have leaks and wind noise and you will say what junk you bought. Do a search and you will see how many blame every manufacturer of stripping as junk, when it was there not paying attention to detail that caused the problems.
