Where do the Manufactures/Vendors get this Stuff??
This is not meant to be a WTB, I need help figuring out where to buy something:
I've been working on a mod for one of my trucks and I'd like to find a source from which to purchase glass run stripping (the weatherstrip that goes in the upper/rear of the door-window frames) by the roll. When vendors sell it for a specific year/model truck it comes cut to length with relief cuts for the radiuses. I'd like to find the same stuff, just not pre-cut. For reference I'm talking about the material used to make item #9 here. Anyone have any suggestions? Here's a pic: Last edited by Frizzle Fry; 01-25-2008 at 08:07 AM. |
