Weather Stripping Kit

I have a 79' Mazda RX7 and I was looking for some kind of weather stripping kit at a cheap price. I believe I need all stripping. doors, windows, sunroof, hatch, and whatever else im missing. I am also looking for a dash, door panels, radio console frame, basically restoring all the interior from a 10yr. sit. (so if anyone knows anyone or anywhere i can get all this at a really cheap price - point me in the right direction please) Thanks!

You can find the door seals on Ebay for 1/2 the price of VB. They are always on there, and forum members have reported that they are high quality and a good fit. I think I've seen hatch seals on there too. You can find anything that you will ever need on Ebay if you look hard enough. Oh, and welcome to the forum!

automotive? heh. i dont know... i saw something similar in canadian tire.

looked to be about $20 for enough to do the front two doors. but i've also read the generic trim is very brittle at first and can take awhile to fit properly.

considering all it takes is some custom cutting to length, glue and such i figure it'll work out just as good as factory (if i do it right :p ) will just take a bit longer to seat properly.
