as far I know this is the manufacturer of those:

when I ordered mine they were the only ones able to get me the ful 10 kit for 73/74 Hardtop Charger. I had to wait because didn't have the outer quarter glass material at the moment

aside that, the ones mentioned, and also Dixie Restorations.

THERE IS NO other weatherstips set closer to the originals than Top Catswiskers. In some cases they have to get the closer material available and there is a chance they are not EXACT the same than OEM but once mounted will look great, just like OEM and great fitment

We are a stocking warehouse distributor for all of the weatherstripping manufactures as Clesters, Metro, Precision, RSSI and Steele.  We sell to all of them the Top Catwhiskers as they originate from here.  Being in Canada, you might want to go through National Moparts.  If you have any particular questions in regards to weatherstripping, drop me a message and I will attempt to answer any questions.

I suggest trying to reuse original door seals and roof rail seals as they are hard to beat.  We also mix and match components as we have found that certain components of one brand are typically better than say another brand.  You may end up with door seals from Metro, roof rail from Steele, quarter glass from Soff Seal, windshield from Precision and window felts from us, Top Catwhiskers.  Each year model and body style have their own issues, so try to deal with a vendor that typically deals with the restoration shops as they have a better knowledge of what is working.  The other issue that there are seals buried down in the doors and other body components that many are not aware of.  We stock all of those components

Just let me know how we can help and we will be at the Indy Cylinder Head Show on March 1st through the 3rd for anyone to see the product line.  If you view the website, it list less than 5% of the product we offer, so it is best to just reach out to us via an email, private message or phone call.

As mentioned National Moparts is in Canada. I actually bought my weatherstripping at Year One, Top Cat at http://www.dixierestorationparts.com/ and also parts from MegaParts USA.

Quick look on nationalmoparts looks like $150 for the catwhisker 8 pc set.seems pretty reasonable.

Add 30% to that brings it to 143 cdn. $150 cdn and no border fees is pretty decent.
