Beltline Molding Weatherstrips


Hi RealWing thank you for the response. Just for my own clarification, the belt molding on the inboard channel of your door or the inside of the car is fuzzy and outboard channel portion of the door which is the belt molding exposed to the outside elements would be a combination of fussy strip & rubber seal & stainless strip. If that is correct, does the rubber on your outside belt molding from Dixie stay consistent completely across the horizontal plain where it makes full contact will the door and quarter glass? The rubber seal on my car doesn't, it dips or sinks in areas, where if the seal had been just a much as 1/16th wider then problem would be 100% solved. I believe the main objective is for the least amount of water to make it past down between the seal and the glass and a tight seal would be of great benefit to ensure this, yet not too tight where opening and closing windows becomes a challenge./COLOR]


Both the inside and outside weatherstrips from Dixie (Cat Whiskers) are fuzzy and make full contact all the way across. The first photos show the Cat Whisker strips and the last one shows a quarterglass strip that is all rubber on the outside and is incorrect.
Correct - the main purpose is to limit water ingress into the door/quarterpanel.
It took me a while to get the window glass adjusted correctly to get a good consistent seal on the outside and inside.
