    '75 Windshield pillar post weather-striping

    Can anyone recommend a quality weather-stripping source to me for my '75 convertible. The stripping I purchased (not Ecklers, M/A, etc) is still too hard to allow my driver's side window to fully travel to the top of the window tract. At the very top (kick-out) area, the window binds and will not complete the final 1/2 - 1 inch travel. It is not a function of the motor being too weak. The current W/S just prevents the final travel to the top due to being too hard. Maybe an OEM/NOS piece that hasn't gotten hard due to age?
    Thanks in advance for all replies.

      Any idea who made the one you have?
      Corvette Rubber and Metro Moulded are the most common, and quite different from each other.

          Thanks Patrick for your reference. I have sent a question to Metro based on their description of their version of the seal.
