Never actually used it myself, but Steele rubber products is a pretty big sponser for the weekend TV car programs. I bought a door kit for my 77' from JC Whitney years ago, but never installed it. Looks pretty good with push pins molded in, so surely made by one of the main companies.

I like Metro moulded rubber products for door and trunk seals - soft and well made. You have to ask the vendors what brands they sell. Some off-brands are stiff and hard.

I just bought the deluxe kit from Steele since it was about $100 cheaper than Rock or 1A Auto and quite a bit cheaper than Fusiak. I haven't received it yet so can't comment on the quality.

I like Metro. And I recommend buying direct from Metro, they sell from their website. Not a lot of difference in price. I recommend this because some suppliers/sellers will tell you they sell Metro but when it arrives it is not in a Metro bag, and it is not made by Metro. Then if you want to get that corrected you will have to pay shipping again. Buying what you can't see first is always a roll of the dice.

Steele mekes some products, and I have been happy with buying from them. But they also sell products made by other people. If you don't ask them who makes what you are buying you will not know for sure what you are getting.
