Where have you guys bought your window sweeps (or window seals, or door seals)?

I bought a set from ebay a few years ago and had some fitment issues. Best to get from a reputable source. Rock Auto would be a good choice, so would the usual Corvette suppliers. ebay not so much.

I purchased a set of inners and outers from an ebay seller for just over $57.00 delivered. They were made by Precision (<--CLICK) and fit perfectly with no fitment problems whatsoever. The outers seal the glass beautifully and the inners work terrific as well. I highly recommend Precision brand seals.

I bought a set off fleabay - no issues on fit and installation. not as good as OEM, but not that bad either. NOS pieces are a bit pricey, and 3X the price of the reproductions. both ecklers and corvette central have repro sets for around $60 (+S&H).

I know that the outers are still available through GM. I work in a Chevy parts dept and just ordered one for the drivers side for my car a few weeks ago. My passenger side one is still good, but I'm going to order one anyway while I still can.

i'll be damned! I thought those things were discontinued years ago. just checked the PN's, 10245645 and 10245646, and they are still available. thanks for the heads up!!!
