Door Seals
Rock auto has a set of door seals (L&R) for $70 with shipping. That's half of OEM price on Ebay. Has anyone bought a pair? If so, how do they do they fit? How's the quality? Herb

Most of the aftermarket ones are Metro regardless of who sells them. There ok, nothing like factory at double the cost.

When you say "nothing like the factory", does that mean they aren't a good option? Is it worth spending the extra 70 bucks?

Bite the bullet; factory will last a lot longer and fit better. Get them while they're still available.
