Side Finisher Rubber Replacement and Rear Side Window Trim Replacement

[Will]

I just picked these up. Great find. Thanks for sharing!

Good find. This job can be a pain in the ass, especially dealing with eliminating kinks of the new weatherstrip. Please keep us posted with your experience of this alternative.

I received the pair of seals mentioned above ~ 2 weeks after ordering Will They appear to be every bit OE quality to my eye. Nice grade rubber and finish. I like the quality 3M tape that came attached to the pieces as well. The rubber seal as a whole is a little thicker than I expected, especially toward the H-kink. But I'm told by others that it should fit behind the molding just fine. Attached are a few pictures.

I find it interesting that there's no tape along the bottom end of the seal. Maybe it's held in place by the trim once all the screws are in or something? I'll reference Cubieman post above. These seals have a significant taper from the C pillar to the B pillar. So maybe there is hope for a perfect fitment.

I'll probably do this job within the next month. I'll be happy to report more at that time. Cheers!

Looking forward to see the results with these two seals. If these fit good I will go this route as well. Keep us updated. Thanks…

Here is another link for these from the same seller all in English and Dollars.

If that is the case then we have all been played. Maybe it is just a aftermarket copy of it ? Or maybe they found the supplier and purchased them separate ?

the $140 per set discounted rate is a deal. I’m thinking to redo mine with this

I've bought the generic stuff, I actually purchased a few different styles to see which would fit best but haven't done the DIY just yet.

I'm more interested in getting a set of these that are already contoured, I'm in the East Bay and I'd definitely be down to join in with you.

We could probably get a few locals together or even just us 2 and get the discount.

In for two sets, if any Texas peeps wanna join in.

[Estoril]

I'd be in for a discounted set

Yeah for sure. I am going to wait to see pics of them installed and reviewed. If they are promising then I definitely want to pick up a pair as a spare. Never know how long stuff like this is available for. At $140 a pair they arent that much more expensive than the 3M solution with all the tubing etc.

I'm in Houston, but I'd be in.

Where did these Texas cats come from? Lol
