Weather stripping kits...

[thirdmanj]

I wish there was a way I could phrase this without starting a war, but ok here it is...

Question: What is the difference between SpecialTauto's weather stripping kit and DMCHs? Other than STAs is 190.00 vice DMCHs 264.00.

I've been bouncing back between the two and they each look to be about the same except I think DMCHs has the rubber for the tops of the doors.

Thoughts? Opinions? Personal expierience?

.....civility...

Just a quick question: do you need a kit or are you just curious?!

I thought I needed a new one. In fact I "probably" do. I can tell I've got some tears, but hey, I stay dry! The only time a little water gets in is when I use a power washer, even then its very rare and only a drop or two.

I found that after re-applying some 3M weatherstripping glue to pieces that were coming loose, my leaks were resolved.

I've held off as long as I dare. I hated to ask, but they're both a lot of money and with close to 80 bucks on the line I figured the question was waranted.

It is really a matter of getting what you pay for IMO.

Playing the here, so does that mean we shouldn't buy your rear wheel bearings?

That said, of course I'd buy your wheel bearings but your response was pretty ambiguous to me. If you know STA's or DMCH's are crap tell us. I've seen both fail prematurely.

I can see where that would come into play. But price and quality of product are two different things. I've dropped the price on bearings with National units we can warranty if failure occurs.

The break down in kits is this. I sell the same kit as Houston with different inner and outer door seals:

DMCH/DPI kit includes lower door seals STA does not.

DMCH/DPI kit includes rear louvre seal pieces STA does not.

DMCH kit requires clips on inner door seals DPI and STA does not

DMCH requires adhesive on outer door seals DPI does not

STA kits are packaged tightly causing creases etc DMCH/DPI kits are not

STA kits feature annoying sharpy writing on outer door pieces DMCH/DPI does not

Sorry to hear that, man!

Also can I say that DPI's price is actually insane considering it includes the louver support buffers?

Only two more sets at this price! Then a price increase due to the louver strips going through the roof.

We are now out of the Louver support brackets at the listed price.

We have been selling seals for years that are 1/8" larger in tubular diameter to better compensate for the difference in front /rear position of the door. Take a look--
