    I am aware that Steele Rubber is the go-to for window and door seals, but their prices motivate me to shop other resources.....
    Has anybody bought the 6 piece window felts and channel run kit from "Bowtie Bits" off ebay?......They are said to be US manufactured and only $119 to Steele's $154 for the same pieces to do both doors...

    I ordered the kit, so we will see!
    Their website is: bowtiebits.com
    They don't show any van parts on their website though...

    Welll...

    I didn't think I was going to like them because they aren't the type that is in a flexible metal u-channel.....But in the end, these are the ones I used and they worked great!
