If you can afford it go with GM weatherstripping.In my book there is only GM or Willcox for weatherstrips forget the rest.

Just enter the model year to get the right part numbers. I've heard good reports about Wilcox too though and I believe they sell the CRC EDPM rubber which is made in the US. I'm not certain what the Ecklers WS is (US or asian) but I'll find out when it arrives. Hopefully it's CRC since that is reported to be better than most.

another plug for willcox - re-did my son's 85 a couple years ago w/ zero issues. one note, you can't rush this job. take your time, do one piece at a time, trial fit, take your time, take your time, take-your-time...

Glad to hear all the good stuff about Wilcox. I will be ordering new WS for my 95 from them. I usually use Soffseal on my older project, but they want 800.00 for my Corvette.
