I would like to know if anyone has installed the whisper quiet door liners, they look like they would be a great thing. I have to replace my weatherstripping and thought if they were awesome i my as well do it at the same time.

I'm not sure what exactly you mean by "whisper quiet door liners".

I put in the foam liners that were used in later years and they made a noticeable difference in the noise level. I used double-sided foam tape to hold them in place.

They are basically the same thing as it sounds like you used. Ultimate corvette parts just labelled them whisper quiet door inserts.
