Anyone use Year One weatherstripping?

Has anyone tried the weatherstripping sold by Year One? I was just wondering about the quality since the price seems a little higher than most places.

I have used their weatherstripping for Chevelles and Camaro's. I think there are only two company's that make stripping, A&M Softseal and Metro.  I have installed quite a bit of Softseal and just used Metro on a Riviera. I like the Metro much better. Seems much softer and the doors close a lot easier, kinda like the original. I have not done a Mopar yet, but if I had a choice , at this point, I would buy Metro.  Not sure if Year One sells both.      John

Year One doesn't have an exclusive on those either, so I'd shop around to some of theother suppliers as well.
It's too bad show season is mostly over because the best deals I have gotten on weatherstripping have all been found at swap meets.  Soff Seal and Metro seem to wholesale to almost anybody.

about 3rd gen window catwiskers year one sells PIECE OF S**T. Dunno who is the manufacturer.

Doors and driprail seals... Nice, but they are same that sells rest of restorer dealers so is not a big deal
