Default Replacing weatherstripping

How hard is this to do on a 94 vert.I only need it around the windows and across the windshield.It would really make my car look better but as of yet it doesn't leak.

I did the windshield on my 87, it wasn't that hard. the hardest part was getting all the old stuff out of the way.

And use 3M adhesive remover and some sharp picks and maybe tweezers to get all the old stuff out. And don't start at one end and work you're way around. It will stretch and not fit right. Secure both ends and work towards the middle carefully. Don't stretch it!.
