Weatherstripping
 
Thoughts on which vendors are the source of better quality weatherstripping?
Who's had experience w any of them?. I need to replace my A pillar gaskets along w door and probably window sash.

The part number for the Rear B Pillar and Roof Weatherstrip Latex Weatherstrip is 460284.
The part number for the Front A Pillar and Roof Weatherstrip Latex Weatherstrip is 460285.

They sell for $170 each.

I don’t believe they are listed on the website, so you can call me direct (800-757-5336) if you want to order them.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Thanks!

What is the advantage of Latex here?

Well I know Latex does not hold up to heat. So im not sure how they would do in Arizona vs traditional rubber. I only can relate to what Ive been using over the years.

Softer like OEM stuff.. the Melrose stuff is close to OEM, but i have found that the Latex seems to be he best for me so far, it feels just like OEM and I finally have the windows adjusted so there should not be any leaks
