i would have to say that gm would be the best, but aftermarket... i would think that they are all the same or very similar...

I have had good luck with fit and quality from Corvett Rubber Company, and their prices are good too.

I just purchased new door weatherstrips about two weeks ago from The Last Detail in Atlanta GA and the ones they sell are from Corvette Rubber Inc..
I am very pleased with the fit and appearance and look exactly like my originals did. I am told they successfully pass NCRS judging, if you care about originality.

I redid my CE with the stuff from corvette rubber also, appx 1 1/2 yrs ago. It is wearing great and fit perfectly. I would recommend them. You can check the prices at http://www.corvetterubber.com and only tooka bout 2-3 days to get to me.
Good luck :seeya

I bought mine from Corvette Central. They ended up having to send me 3 different sets until I got one that the stripping was not torn or damaged. I have always had good success with CC so this came as a surprise to me. May have just been a bad batch but if they run a christmas special be carefull :lol:

How hard is it to redo the rubber? :confused: is it more than a one man job?
