ROOF RAIL WEATHER STRIPPING

[poppa]

Who makes the best fitting weatherstripping?

I bough mine from R/T Specialties and they are very good quality and fit nicely.

I have metro roof rail weatherstrip, had no problem with it. But don't buy the Metro door weatherstrip, its too thick, causing alignment/door closing issues.

Most door weatherstripping will appear this way at first..once the doors are closed and sits out in the sun for a couple months, the gaps align nice. Most are used to adjusting the doors gaps when shut using the old, worn out weatherstripping and when new is applied, it causes thew door to look and shut kinda "off"....

Thanks for the replies guys. Jaak,you wouldn't have any pics of yours with the windows up would you? Wouldn't mind seeing the quarter window when it is just starting to hit the weather stripping either. I can't remember which one I have Metro or Softseal (it was wrapped to a blueish/purpleish piece of printed cardboard) ,It looks real nice but I'm having door closing issues and can't get the quarter windows to close antwhere near where they need to be. Thanks again...

I don't have any pics of that in my files right now, sounds by the discription of the packaging, you have metro. Now when I first put it in, but also had door/window issues, but after adjusting both door and quarter glass everything is fine. The best way to do it, is have weather strip in, all door panels removed, doors closed, and sit inside car, loosen all bolts and adjust glass until it meets the weatherstrip.

Sounds like Soft-Seal brand to me... I was real surprised just how much the rear 1/4 windows came up in the very last crank.
FWIW mine dont roll up "into" the seal, they close against it.

I've got Metro roof rail seals in my Charger and I'm happy with them.
