What company makes the best roof rail weather strip? Rhino suggester Metro and I have a Year One catalog here to look at. The car it is for is my 69 Dart GTS. I would also like to hear your experience with what brands work and which ones don't! Thanks! Ted wave

This isnt an easy answer your best bet is individual pieces from various companies.

I've never used this specific product from Detroit Muscle Technologies, but the few things I have gotten from there were high quality.

Everything I've bought from DMT has been spot-on vs. OEM

I had tried both Metro and Steele roof rail weatherstrips. Both had some issues on my car. Maybe they are better now I don`t really know as it was years ago. The Metro was very soft if I remember correctly and the Steele was much more stiff.

Thanks everyone! DMT sounds familiar! I think I sent him some NOS gaskets years ago so he could repop them! I will check them out too! up
