I like Metro Soft Seals. Bought mine from Tamraz.

I got Metro from Rock Auto for my 98. Oddly, they do not list weatherstripping for your car. Some of the Metro stuff was not so great, and I ended up getting replacement from Steele and the quality was better. (Lock Pillar seal)

I was pleased with the Metro door seals. I got them either from Parts Place or Amazon. I am sure ebay has them too.

let's see, for cowl, I found a nice used original. nothing but horror stories on the repro stuff as the hood will sit high in the back. I didn't want that so sought out a nice used one.

trunk - steele

door and roof rail (assuming a holiday coupe), the latex version from TPP. the doors do roll over on the corners unlike GM. fwiw, I bought Soff Seal for my 70 Pontiac doors and they roll over too. fit is pretty good otherwise. regardless of driver (pontiac) or show car (olds) I couldn't justify $1000/side for NOS door weatherstrips

lock pillar - steele, but I haven't installed them yet (fwiw, bought them for my 70 Pontiac from steele too, different part nbr - go figure. I haven't installed those yet either)

qtr glass (again assuming a holiday coupe) - steele (again fwiw, I bought them for my 70 Pontiac from steele. same part nbr. and you guessed it, haven't installed them yet.

what have a missed? if it's a convert, I can't comment on the top weatherstrip.
