Hardtop and Hatch weatherstripping

I'm finally getting around to repairing my hatch. I removed it from the top today and began to look over all the weatherstripping. The grommets that go to the actual hinge need to be replaced. They pretty much turned to dust as I removed the hatch from the hinges. I'm also looking to replace all the weatherstripping that pertains to the hatch. I was researching hatch repairs last week and came across a thread about weatherstripping sellers to stay away from. The usual suspects aka LMC and Brothers were listed as stay away from sellers. Mostly everybody on this thread agreed they had purchased weatherstripping from a certain seller, but I can't remember the name of the seller. I didn't subscribe to the thread either. I have been trying to find the thread for the past 3 hours, but no dice. Anybody know of a "good to go" seller for what I'm looking for?

Re: Hardtop and Hatch weatherstripping

I think Precision makes the best seals IMO. However I don't think they make the seals for our hatches or our bed rails. I will be interested in what others have purchased for those areas.

I think Precision was the place, Asolde. I'm looking at probably going with GMC Paul for the Hatch stuff if Precision doesn't carry them. Anybody used the hatch weatherstripping from GMC Paul?

I got all my seals from Wes at Classic Heartbeat. Give him a call.

I've heard good things from both gmc Paul's and classic heartbeat. Lmc and brothers fit ok but not great but were cheaper.
