Trunk whether stripping

Don diego · Aug 8, 2025

I placed the stripping temporarily in the channel and I didn't want to force it, but it seems the OER stuff is to big, nowhere near closing. Not sure which way the lip of the seal faces.

This way?

Or this way?

The paint shop put some adhesive or sealant to keep it in the channel .

I got it in, I had to remove some material from the back side of the weather strip. Seems to fit and seal nice. The material it's made from looks to be to dense and not soft enough. Some guy on Ebay is selling a NOS GM trunk seal for 450.00 dollars, he must be on some serious LSD.

Metro hollow core works great, but it doesn’t have the OEM look,
