Default Re: Just starring at my 90.

I feel your pain...only differently. I travel a lot and every time I'm home it's raining/storming. When I'm gone, it's 75F & sunny.

Well, that's at least worse than here in Chicago. 24 degrees last night, high in the 30s, snow tonight. Could see 55-60 degrees on wednesday so crossed fingers I may get my Z06 off the top of the lift. But then rain for a couple days so maybe not. Oh well.

It could be worse. I had an uncle from Detroit who, when he as a kid, used to spend vacation time in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Once someone asked him, "what do you do there in the summer?" He said, "if it falls on Sunday we play baseball." --Bob

(CRAZY Texas weather!!)
Last thing to do to mine the rear hatch weatherstrip too.

Replacing the weatherstrip is not too big a job. Couple of hours if you do it by yourself.
I got one of the weatherstrips with the moulded corners and it worked real well.
My trouble is that everytime I go to do something I don't know where to stop.
I have ended up pulling all the insulation and sound deadening out to just clean everything.
I swear my car is cleaner in areas that no one will ever see than it is on the outside.
Oh well, at least I feel good knowing I have done it right!!

Where did you source the moulded corner WS? Seems they all fall apart at the sharp corner.

Livin' in the 80's,
Here's a pic right after installation. I'll send you a PM with the info I have. Not sure I should post vendors in the open forum as I am not sure they are a sponsor.
