I am looking for a source for the door weather strip. The one that goes on the pinch weld that you can see when the door is open. Suggestions?

JC Whitney :eek: has this that looks like it might be close:

I just bought mine from TMH when I was doing mine but that looks pretty close. I think you should buy some and report back on how well they fit. :rolleyes:

They seem to be having issues with their online pictures but you may want to give Re-originals a call. They list gaskets for the Montecarlo (https://02c233d.netsolstores.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWCATS&Category=8246).

Try woolies-trim.co.uk
Unfortunately their site is being worked on right now but should be back up soon. Uk based but might be cheaper. They have a huuuuuge range of stuff like that. Personally I've always just gone to a scrap yard and found something as close as possible from a younger car (so they're still springy and not perished). Can usually get 2 doors, luggage compartment and engine lid seals for around £5-£10 for the lot.

I just went thru this. Bought from Re-Originals. I think their
cross reference for a Scorp. was their L6 profile. "D" shaped.
I found that to be too small. IIRC I went w/their E9 profile.
"O" shaped & larger = better seal. Technically that is the seal
profile for Beta Coupe/Zag., etc. but it worked on my Scorp.
They will send you 3" samples upon request. They just got a
new, fresh spool of E9 couple months ago. Good folks to deal
with. I think Sandy is the receptionist. Guys in the warehouse
know their stuff.

I bought weatherstripping recently. Mcmaster-Carr.... http://www.mcmaster.com/ has some that's close to OEM. It is cheaper than TMH, but not by all that much.

I ended up buying the weatherstripping from TMH, along with some other parts that didn't have alternative sources. I also bought the fuzzy strips and bacon strips from them as well. I'm sure I paid more than I needed to, but I'd rather support a car specific vendor.

Re-Originals has Scorp door surrounds, not window fuzzy strips.
Re-originals has Beta/Beta door surrounds & Beta/Beta fuzzy strips.

Thanks everybody. It looks like I have a few more options to search through.

I'll reply back when I find what works.

Just stick w/Re-Originals, they have what you require.
