They did send me the seals which I purchased, the rear passenger seal arriving a month after the other, presumably due to their refining of the manufacturing and packaging processes for the more complex passenger side seal.

They look quite nice and are professionally packaged, with the seal arriving last packaged in a sort of large blister pack card; they should have wonderful shelf life thanks to this. They are definitely flexible enough that I'm optimistic they won't spring the doors open like many aftermarket seals.

Unfortunately I'm still recovering from carpal tunnel surgery, and the weather has been atrocious here in non-sunny Southeast Michigan, so I haven't been able to attempt an installation to verify fitment.

They haven't sent me the additional set of seals they were supposed to for sending them my NOS OEM set of seals either, so I can't compare the new one ones against them off my van; I'll have to remove my door seals to test fit.

I'll definitely post updates when there are further developments.

hey guys...i got the right side seal for the side doors on dads van and fit was once again spot on and made a perfect seal....i finally have all new weatherstrips on every door and its made a huge difference in sound and water and sand intrusion...couldnt be happier and well worth the asking price

i didnt really realize just how tight these new seals made dads van until i done a lil test....i cranked van up and let it idle with the heater on high for about 10 minutes...i then went to the rear doors and barely opened rear door about 1/2 inch and i could feel the heat pouring out as it made a whistling sound......i then shut the door and waited a few minutes later and checked around each door for even the smallest leak and found nothing....shes tight
