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. |

Re: Weatherstripping
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!

Re: Weatherstripping
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.
