I've done a forum search and couldn't find any information about this. Are there any vendors selling a weather stripping kit for a 2nd generation Charger?
All I could find was separate seals and rubbers.
Thanks in advance.

I bought all my weather strip from classic industries.
There are few problems in life that cannot be solved with C-4.

Thanks,  I'll try Dixie.

Classic industries doesn't have a kit. You have to order everything separate.

We have been selling weather stripping for over 25 years and everybody is always asking about a kit.  The problem is that for one person, they do not want the trunk seal, another person does not need the hood seals and the third person does not want the window felts.  So that is why there is not a distinct kit that we offer.  Just for example on a a 69 Charger there is all of the following possibilities: hood to radiator and hood to cowl seal, inner fender frame rail seals, inner fender headlight seals, inner fender top rear upper seal, inner fender rear vertical seal, windshield seal, vent window seal, door seals, roof rail seals, window felts (4 piece or 8 piece kit), door end plug, U-Jamb seal, trunk seal and then you might as well throw in a paint gasket kit and a firewall gasket kit.  So it becomes a trick box.  Some people want Metro door seals while others want Soft Seal.  One person wants a windshield gasket from Steele and another wants a Precision gasket.  Even though we keep all of these components in stock and from the different manufactures, you can only try to find out the exact needs of the customer.  Even though we sell weatherstripping, I strongly suggest trying to reuse original door seals or roof rail seals.  None of the reproductions fit as well as the originals.  Unless they are torn, just replace the clips for less than $15.00 and have a much better product.  If any of  you should come to Carlisle or the Nats, we have the largest amount of weatherstripping on the grounds.  If anyone needs any specific questions answered, drop me a call or an e-mail.  Thanks,
