weatherstrip choices.

[Lynn]

getting ready for paint on my 69. Just realized I don't have door or roof rail weatherstrip. NOS isn't an option for me (too cheap). I know this has to have been discussed, but couldn't find it on a search. Don't need a trunk weatherstrip as I still have an NOS one.

My main concerns are, in this order:

Proper fit. Doors shut without slamming.
It works to keep out moisture and wind noise.
It at least looks similar to the original at first glance (don't really give a farrot's fanny whether some judge with a magnifying glass can distinguish from NOS).

Here are the choices I see:

Metro gold series (15 year warranty)
Metro platinum series (30 year warranty)
SoffSeal (not sure of the warranty)
Steele rubber products (supposedly real rubber as GM used) (lifetime warranty)
OER (I believe this is the manufacturer for the latex seals sold by HBC and Ricks)

Although I have found info on the Metro platinum, I have yet to find a vendor that actually offers it. If someone has personal experience with any of the above on a 69 camaro coupe, please share your experience.

Thanks.
