Weatherstripping question

Post by aerodynamic » Sat Jan 13, 2007 12:06 pm

Hey dudes,

I was wondering if someone could help me with ordering weatherstripping. Basically, as far as I can tell, ALL the door, side window and quarter glass seals are bad. I'm going to order all of it, but I find the names in the catalog a bit confusing. I just want to make sure I don't get duplicates of what I need, or omit something. Can someone give me a list of exactly what to order? And, does any of it need to be glued?

Thanks for any help!

Hey Aerodynamic,

yepp you need the black 3M glue for your new weatherstrips. You should glue the ones around the doors and the ones along the roof rail. Also if you are putting in a new trunk weatherstrip, you need the glue. The trunk is a two man job btw!
The ones between the side and rear qtr glass will slide on, no glue needed.

I got all my weatherstripping from the Paddock, I'll see if I still got the order list, then I'll post it for ya!

If you're installing new window whiskers too, I can tell you that the kit from Paddock doesn't fit on the rear qrt interior panels, they are too short. So maybe look elsewhere for those!
