: Weatherstrip kits.Which brand is best?? ELLI Dec 4th, 02, 4:30 PM I used Soff Seal and had great luck with the whole kit. Everything fit like a champ, and the quality seemed very good. ------------------ Mat Ellison Lincoln, Ne 70 SS 396 Chevelle 62 Impala Sport Coupe 2001 Grand Prix GT Aces #2424 www.angelfire.com/amiga/elliboom (http://www.angelfire.com/amiga/elliboom) All your base are belong to us T-Man Dec 4th, 02, 4:33 PM Metro is the brand I prefer. I've used them on three cars without any problems. http://www.metrommp.com/ They even made a couple pieces for my 70 Monte Carlo that no one offered for a reasonable price. All the doors closed and the deck lid closed just like NOS weatherstrips. I've used other brands and the doors and trunk were hard to close until the car sat in the sun for a few days. ------------------ Never be afraid to try something new.

Some were Soffseal and some were Metro. Both seem to be excellent. chev64 Dec 6th, 02, 9:39 AM James Hinshaw pointed out some of the differences between Soff Seal and Metro and the biggest thing I remember is that the trunk seal looked and fit just like the OEM seal. ------------------ Leo Paugh Maryland Chevelle Club #017 A.C.E.S.#3731 progress has little to do with speed, but lots to do with direction.
