I buy a lot of parts from them and they are very prompt in shipping + shipping charges are reasonable. I was impressed with the quality of all their weatherstripping except for the door weatherstripping which I thought could use some improvements on the molded ends but I did save hundreds of dollars by not buying from Year One so I can live with the problems I had installing it on my doors.

youre the man!! I appreciate the hook up.
400 bucks sounded like a whole lot of money for a rubber kit.

where ever you decide to buy from,
I would recomend the
Metro Super soft over Soft seal
I used soft seal on a 68 el camino and had to slam the doors to get them to latch, never had to before those. they were too thick and never really got broken in enough to ever close right.
