Steele Rubber Uses CHINA CRAP

Went to Steele Rubber to purchase two Vent Window Rubber gaskets.
Needless to say they did not fit correctly. When I called Steele they said it was impossible to tool all the Rubber for all vehicles. The vent window seals came from China, I could have got the same seals from LMC for half the price.
Just beware of there advertising claiming superior products.
