If only there were a better option for the window wipes. Mine from LMC don't even touch the window :-/

Thanks again for the tip. I ordered the weatherstriping last week. I just received it today.

I have been looking a little at the replacement rocker panels, and it doesn't appear they have the lip that this slides onto. What are guys doing to have this lip? Maybe I am just not looking hard enough.

The lip is on the repop rockers but it is 1/2 the size of the originals.

The full replacement rocker panels (not the slip-ons) do indeed have the lip for the weatherstripping.

OK, thanks for the info, LT1burb and racecougar. Good to know, but it is dang hard to see in the photos.

Any updates? Just linked to this from another member's thread. Seems like a nice solution, & thanks to the OP for sharing. Truly one of those "who woulda thunk it" moments. :lol:

Great write up and suggestion from user Rob Fisher, how about some pics and feedback from the users that have since posted here that they purchased a set?

I called to order a set. They asked if it was the seal "on the door" itself, or the seal that goes on the body. I guess I'm asking you guys which one?

thank you,
Tim

I would think all you need to give them is the part #'s listed in the first post:

I ordered a brand new set from Hondapartscheap.com
P/N 72315-SVA-A01ZA for the right side.
P/N 72355-SVA-A01ZA for the left side.
They are called Front Door Opening Seals and described as Graphite Black.
Brand new in genuine Honda packaging was $38.92 per side.
Lots of these cars in the wreckers so I am sure you could find them used cheaper. This particular weather-strip is used in 2006-2009 Honda civic 2 door coupes, the sedan has a smaller door opening size and does not fit.

Re: 64-66 door weatherstrip-EUREKA!!!!
 
It is the seal that attaches to the body.
Thanks
Rob

Getting ready to pull the trigger on these seals for my truck as well. Anyone else have some feedback?

Wondering the same thing, need the users that purchased some recently to provide feedback?

I couldn't be happier with them.
Tight seal, no more wind whistling through the gaps.
And at about $35.00 a side and they just press on it was a no brainier for me.
Great bang for the buck.

Great info, I will be ordering these!

Just ordered a set today and my truck goes in Tuesday to get the seat reupholstered. Getting ready for the Brothers Truck Show the end of this month.

Thanks again for the post! I'm gonna order mine soon!

Re: 64-66 door weatherstrip-EUREKA!!!!
 
Do you get that "wind whistle" at driving speed with these or do they seal well as well as let the door close correctly?

Alex

EDIT: Never mind.. I see you say the seal does it all and doesn't whistle. Thanks!

Rob Fisher 07-14-2014 12:21 PM

Re: 64-66 door weatherstrip-EUREKA!!!!
 
I have had them on the truck for a few months now and have found that they seal very well. Well enough in fact that I need to change the rubber around the vent windows because now they whistle.

Re: 64-66 door weatherstrip-EUREKA!!!!
 
This place has them for about $31 plus shipping.

So the Honda trim was a success for the knee knockers also? Just a little short?
