I really need help here. I will be re-installing my windshield and and rear window on my S13 coupe soon. I need to find out where i can buy the weather strips for them. Does anyone know where i can get these aftermarket cause dealer wants like $500 for these. I've posted this up before but no one responded to my thread.

^^ same^^ not worth a leak down the road...glass shops are generally cheaper and can actually come to where your car is (Van Services). Can't beat that!

oooh i just re-read your post! Welcome to my world!! Stripping should be sold as a kit (3pieces)for the front and 2 pieces for the rear. My rear was only $30 and front kit was about $60, and that is from Nissan.......The problem I ran into is that the new rear doesn't sit right toward the base of the rear glass??

PM me with what is included in the stripping kit and I can check it against my friend (who works for a local Nissan Parts Dealer)

Your local dealer is lying, they're $200 at most, even if they rape you.

Aftermarket moulding generaly doesn't fit the same or even look like the OE stuff, so it's better to go OE anyway. Either that or the glass place buys OE and marks it up to sell to you.
