I would consider paying a pretty penny if SOMEBODY would make the rubber for around the windows.  I don't know if that will ever happen.

it wouldn't be a bad price if our cars were worth 30 or 40 grand.
I'll caulk my windows shut before I spend $300 for dew wipes.

Eric,

Have you ever heard whether or not they will be reproducing the rubber that goes around the windows. (sorry, not sure what to call it) 

I think it is called the channel weather strip.  It surrounds the windows and the glass roll/goes up into it.

If anybody finds New, universal, or even used in good shape I need it.  I am putting off installing my dew wipes and having the windows re-tinted until I find it.  :)

2 door tempo channels work IF you have vent windows IIRC. It is rubber and last longer. For the rest of us.... too short

I had someone offer me a perfect gt40 intake for a set of Re-done dew wipes
Once I get a way to order online(no debit card) I will start refurbising them and selling them.

Does anybody have any updates regarding Window Weatherstripping and our rides?  My passenger window leaks really bad and I need to come up with a solution before it drives the wife nutso.

Has anybody tried a universal product?

Does anybody have any that would be usable?

Help please!
