jasper Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 A search revealed nothing specific. Any recommendations, or cautions on brand of weatherstrip. OEM vs aftermarket. Your opinion is appreciated.......Thanks FYI...I just purchased new PPG tinted windshields for 70-78z's for $120.00, hand delivered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jasper Posted December 10, 2008 Author Share Posted December 10, 2008 I was under the impression these were hard to find. I work at a toyota dealer. I called our local glass installer. He delivered 3 new windshields the next day for $120.00 each. I think you should call a local seller/installer. They probably have access to a local "windshield wharehouse". ...Installed it would have cost $200.00. I'm not setup to package glass and ship. This is just basicly a public service anouncement.

2eighTZ4me Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Precision all the way. IF you're buying a kit. I would recommend getting it from Oliver at ZSpecialties. Great deal for what all you get in the kit. http://www.datsunstore.com/product_info.php/cPath/11_35/products_id/305 Others have bastardized weatherstripping from just about any vehicle you could imagine. I've heard of Dodge Caravan door seals working with some trimming on a S30. Some folks have bought rolls of blank stripping from McMaster Carr and cut them to fit.

iflyfast1 Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 My experience with un-Precision has not been very good. I bought the MSA complete Precision kit and I have since replaced almost everything with OEM. The rear hatch inner seal leaked exhaust and the doors wouldn't close. Replaced both with OEM and haven't had a problem since. Used Precision seals on the windshield and the rear hatch glass. Both leak. Just scored a set of NOS OEM seals and I plan to replace both seals soon. You need to make sure your sitting down though when you get the price. In my humble opinion, Precision stuff is a waste of money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
