Vent frame weatherstrip

[cudamark]

Where is everyone buying new vent frame to A pillar weatherstrips for our '63-6 2DR HT's and convertibles? Layson's has them, but, $132 pair plus shipping seems a bit steep for just a couple of pieces of rubber. MoparMall has them also and only $69 pair. Is there a quality difference? Any other sources other than even more expensive NOS pieces I see for sale too?

my dart will need all that, and more,
and those costs, may have to be more resourceful (aka cheap) or end up with duct tape

I have just installed these on my '65 B'cuda.

Is this the one you're talking about:

Mopar A Body 63-66 & B Body 64-65 2DHT & Convertible Wing Vent Window Frame Auxillary Seal

Just an FYI, all weatherstrip is expensive, and you definitely get what you pay for

Just be glad that stuff's still available.

Let me see, what are the companies that specialize in weatherstrip? I need to start a thread and pin it to the top of the body forum. Here we go. Where have you bought weatherstripping?

@toolmanmike Metro Moulded Parts and SoftSeal are two that come to mind

Metro Molded. A good name there. Please post here as well. Where have you bought weatherstripping?

Yup, that's them! Thanks.

I just installed home box store generic weatherstrip on my 67 Barracuda vent windows.
Inexpensive, sticky back, 2 row rubber.

The new upper side window seals are correct, but don't seal against the wing windows.

Checked an all original 67 survivor car, it doesn't have them.

Don't see them on DMTs website either.

Yup, that's them! Thanks.

I have those but have not yet installed them, can anyone post a picture of where they go? I do know they glue to the vent frame, but not sure exactly where.
