door weatherstrip recommendations?

I ordered a set of door weatherstrips from GMC Paul’s but just heard back that they are retooling so it will be months - any other recommendations?
I'm more concerned with quality than saving a few bucks.

Thanks for the input, Mark - doesn't seem like this should be such a big deal, but I've read similar horror stories, so I'll wait for a consistently positive recommendation on a brand/supplier

Steve, I seem to remember a while back a thread where someone was using late model seals. The newer style that don't need glued on but hold on by themselves. Can't recall the model, maybe S-10, hopefully someone will chime in. Interested in what you find out, I'm in the market for new door seals myself. Dave

Good luck. we sell the same product and the same problem they should have the door seals however. We tried 6 or 7 compeditors to please a customer and could not find them. We sell other brands however. The customer wanted Precision brand. The retooling is on the other door molding not the door seals.
Its a pretty universal moulding and not really anything special. We sell the bulk moulding in any length you want up to 500feet spools

Hey Big Mike do you have a printed catalog of your sheet-metal and patch panels that have pictures of the parts? The online parts catalog is hit and miss with pictures and I like to see what I'm ordering so I'm more confident I'm getting the right parts. I'm looking for 60-66 chev-gmc stuff. Apologies for being off topic...Vernski
