1978-1982 Corvette Side Window Rear Vertical Weatherstrip Left Coupe

• Reproduction Of Original
• Made in USA

From 1978 thru 1982 GM used a latex foam product for the Corvette side window rear vertical weatherstrip. This material worked well for a short time, but soon failed due to deterioration from the ozone and weather. For years companies have tried to make a rear window door vertical weatherstrip that would work well and would be durable. Unfortunately all but one company has failed to make the perfect weatherstrip. Eckler's offering of this reproduction side window rear vertical is "right on the money!" Of course it is made to factory specs using the correct metal insert, but what makes it superior is its construction. It is made of an EPDM synthetic foam rubber (ethylene propylene diene monomer) that has a urethane coating. The EPDM allows the door to close easily while the urethane coating provides a "tough as nails skin" that also has a smooth finish. The urethane stands up to the ozone and inclement weather while its smooth finish produces a weather-tight seal and more importantly the finish won't stick to the window and pull the weatherstrip apart. So there you have it, the short history of the C3 Corvette side window rear vertical weatherstrip and some very solid reasons why you should count on Eckler's for the very best in weatherstrip for your 1978, 1979, 1980, 1981, and 1982 Corvette.
