Weatherstripping for '68 442 convertible

What's a good source for buying weatherstripping for a '68 convertible. Want stuff that'll fit right, and for a reasonable price. When I drive that car on the highway, it sounds like you're in a blast furnace. I know I need the top-to-windshield seal, the A-pillar to door seals, and probably the top to side windows seals. I think my door gaskets and trunk gasket are ok. Any comments/advice is appreciated. Thanks, Mike.

I'm fond of Metro Rubber. Some people like SoftSeal.

I think those are pretty much the main players, though I may have forgotten somebody.
Whatever you find should be made by one or the other.

I used Metro. The only thing I didn't like was their hood to cowl seal. It was very hard and I was afraid the hood wouldn't sit down so I ended up using a Soffseal there.

I like Metro.
And I like buying directly from Metro
http://metrommp.com/
I have bought from vendors who say their weatherstrip is Metro but it wasn't. So I like buying direct.
