The most important tip I would give anyone attempting this, is to let the weatherstrip gasket sit in the sun and warm up, before installation. Warm weatherstrip is easier to fit than cold.

I just bought a set of BF Goodrich, at Costco, for my '94. Cost $650 installed. Improved the ride immeasurably. Noise is not a problem.

My Wilcox weatherstripping is holding up well. Helpful hint: leave the weatherstrip in the sun before application. Heating it up allows greater flexibility and allows it to seat in the corners.
