I looked around here and found nothing in regards to this, which was kind of surprising. At any rate, when doing the roof rail weatherstripping on our cars, 1. Is it hard? 2. Does all sorts of other shit have to come off when I do this, or is it a straight remove the crap, prep, and replace w/ new type of job.
If I remember correctly there were four popular companies doing weatherstripping for our cars. If I remember it was GM oem, soff seal, metro moulded, and steel rubber products. When I was initially researching this project about 8 years ago the going trend was that everyone but oem sucked bad & to stay away from them, but now I'm coming across weatherstripping with the "gm restoration parts" stickers on them, and the company says soffseal in the corner sooo... is soffseal getting the restoration contracts from GM now? Anyone have any ideas?
