I believe that Eckler`s has genuine GM as well as aftermarket brands.

I just finished my B-pillar on a 91 vette about 4hrs ago,I purchased the W/S from Willcox the W/S strip is Corvette rubber. Also 2 weeks ago did the A-pillar, I had absolutely no problem with the fit or install on both pieces. I recommend Willcox fast ship and good product. If you want to spend the big GM $$ go ahead this aftermarket W/S was fine, and I'm about as **** as you get with stuff for my vette.
