66-67 Vent window weatherstripping

Anybody have a recommendation of a good fitting vent window vertical run weatherstrip?? I have the Metro supersoft and it is terrible. To large to fit in the channel and lock in. These were $30 i see the restoparts brand run around $54 regularly, Are these made better than the cheaper version that justifies the added cost?

I am also looking for these felts. I found a site called Rubber the Right Way. Claim to fit or money back. I have not heard of them before. Any feedback?

They do not appear to be a manufacturer just a distributor. If you look up the weatherstrip we are talking about . it is made by Metro. The same stuff i have that is no good

No not those, Steele does not seem to list the vertical run weatherstrip(The one that the door glass runs in) Maybe worth a cal directly

You're looking for the vertical glass run channel, correct? Chevelle of the same year and body style will work.

These are the ones but the ones the parts place sells are "METRO". looking for feedback on other brands that may be better

I have to say that I'm surprised Steele doesn't have these for GM applications.
