Trojan
Just about any vendor here probably gets them from the same distributer, I know that Tim Christian sells alot from "Trim Parts"

I got counterparts.... stay away from counterparts window stuff!!! (The truck shop sells them.) I bought some years ago and they fit just like factory (but they wore out pretty quick ) I think I got them from LMC.

GMC Pauls, is where I got mine. I am satisfied. My glass installer was impressed with the windshield and rear window gasket quality.

Re: Whos got the best rubbers?
Yes, absolutly - stay away from the cheap crap - you will regret it - they dont fit right, and alot of times the dont seal properly and you have the same leaks and wind noise you had to start with.
I have used just about all of them it seems and the best I have found bar-none is Steele Rubber Products - their web site is: http://166.82.96.9/homeframes.html Checkem out The ones you get from LMC and most others come in a yellow box - and I cannot remember the name of them for my life - but they suck - I mean they're fine if your just fixing to sell the truck, or your on a extremely tight budget - but for a good restore and to last along time - Steele Rubber is the way to go.
