Who makes the best weather stripping and Antirattles?
I am getting close to getting my truck painted. I will be in need of new weather stripping( doors, hood, winsheild, rear window etc) and new window antirattles. I do not care to pay more if there is a difference and it is better. So who sells quality weather strip and antirattles? I am debating between DC, LMC, and NPD. Also I would like the door weather stripping already cut to length. When I re-did my 54 Ford I used LMCs kit and it is ok to fair. I was not over impressed. So all imput is welcome. Thanks

No positive but I think DC makes a lot of it and other people re-package it. I would find out if NPD or LMC have sources other than DC. I used DC for mine and had several problems. The vent window seal fit was terrible and still leaks air. Window felts took forever to get right and the rubber had dry rot cracks in 2 years.
