Topic: Where to purchase weatherstriping
in Forum: C4 Body
Hello: I have a 1996 Corvette convertible that leaks badly. I previously purchased the weatherstripping for the soft top (not sure what material it is, latex or other...), thinking I could install myself. But then it became evident that the entire car needs weatherstripping replacement. I've finally found someone willing to install, if I obtain all the pieces needed first. I am currently doing comparison pricing and need some guidance. First, is OEM latex indeed the better choice...or EPDM? Have heard arguments for both sides. Second, is the 4 piece body weatherstripping kit offered at, i.e., Corvette Central, the only pieces I'll need? Thanks so much for your input! 🙏😊
I did the web research for my 91 and got confused with the wide range in prices and materials. I finally ordered a full set for my coupe from , The Corvette Rubber Company (Made in USA). Top notch quality and fit and priced right. Don't cheap it. Easy to use website.
I've done full restorations on many vehicles including 3 Corvette's. I personally used Steele Rubber Products for all my weatherstripping needs. I've tried using a couple of Corvette outlets only to be very disappointed. Steele Rubber has given me 100% confidence in their products. Just my opinion.
I have For Sale the left and right windshield retainers moldings (GM # Left 14049031 Right 14049032)
