best quality rubber weather strips
I'm going to be putting together my 65 c10 after paint and was wondering who has the best quality weather strips? I built a 71 c10 back in 2001 and found the ones from Imc to crack premarurely. Also I heard somewhere that the 73-87 door weatherstrip clips in instead of glues and is easier to installfor our trucks-- is this true? I need pretty much all weatherstrip rubber. Thanks.

Re: best quality rubber weather strips
For the window channel and wipers I have had the best sets from Brothers. And for the door seals Soft Seal has been the best no matter what I have used them in.

Re: best quality rubber weather strips
Search for weatherstripping from Honda. Someone on here used civic (?) weatherstripping and said they fit perfect.

Re: best quality rubber weather strips
the 67-72 door seals don't fit, but the honda fits great on the 64-66.
