Help!! Door rubber feedback????

Several years ago I purchased some door rubber seal from LMC, I believe. Now I wish I would have purchased Soft Seal.. Does anyone have an opinion on Soft Seal "v" the other aftermarket seals? Does Soft Seal fit better? Any ideas/opinions??

Re: Help!! Door rubber feedback????

IMHO i will never use the stock stuff after putting my S10 seals on this past weekend. took me 10mins and they FIT PERFECT. i didnt even have to cut down the ends ,where they met at the bottom of the door, the seal was the PERFECT LENGTH !!! no glue,no crap all over your fresh paint (primer in my case) no crap stuck to the door if it dry rots etc...

I have been following the S10 door seal talks over the last several months. I am going to go that way as well, I have the Soft Seals but I won't use them (new in the bag). All that I have heard about the S10 seals have been positive, and without the mess of glues.

I actually got mine out of a wrecked 2004 extended cab Chevy truck with 4 doors (suicide small doors). The seals are waaaay long so I just shortened them to fit. And at only $10 each, it was a cheap "trial" product. I love them!
