Hello,again guys.I'm wondering if anyone has had their weatherstripping replaced on their car.My '96 leaks so bad when it rains it's not funny.It's raining as I write this,so I went and covered up my seats with plastic(ugghhh!!).All I need for now is the two strips for the roof,front and rear,since they wrap around the whole car,but it's still aggravating.Anyone have it done? Is the kit from Mid-America or anybody else's any good,or would it be better to go to my dealer? It's pricier,I know,but I want to have this fixed.Any thoughts would be most welcome.Thanks to all,Joe.

 

Search my screen name for my opinion.

 

It seems I should go with a factory original set......pricier as they are.I'll keep you posted on what happens.Here's the thing...it's pouring here right this second,LOL!!!! But no matter where I go,this needs to get fixed.Thanks for your input...your friend,Joe.

 

In my opinion the Mid America set would work fine. Mid America sells quality products, at least what I have bought has been good. Plus, I am sure GM doesn't even make their own weatherstripping.. Whatever they can contract out to save a buck, i'm sure they will.

 

Go on this website and price out what you need; lowest prices on the Net. I bought the whole convertible package four years ago; great quality.

Go with GM. They are soft and don't last as long but for fit you cannot go wrong. Go aftermarket and its a crap shoot on fit and finish.

 

I just bought the front roof weather strip from ecklers for 150.00 I checked with gm ( i run a shop so I get wholesale pricing) and it was about 225.00. I will let you know how it works after I get it
