hey everyone

I am finally getting a chance to buy new rear hatch seal (after several patch jobs on the old) and I wanted to know if anyone had any experience with either of these "new designs" from zip or corvette central?

or if there is another usa seal that would be better?

with an investment like that I want to get the best I can afford (if possible)

any help would be greatly appreciated

Maybe this will help.

thanks

After reading all of that - are you satisfied with the end result?

I have not looked at the steel rubber seal - but at a glance the corvette central zip and wilcox all look to be the same - or at least very similar.

thanks

As I said, the job came out better on round 2 but I'm very happy with the results. Mine is a daily driver, so function is paramount.

Willcox often has a discount code, so I got the best price (and the same product) from them.

Contrary to the instructions, corners first worked best for me.

Good luck!
