Warning on Quarter Window Rubber
Rebuilding a blazer I have. Had to put another top on it that did not have factory tinted windows. So I cut the rubber to get the windows out. When I tried to get new rubbers all they make is double dome rubbers. I got the first set from Brothers. They show that they have both, so I ordered one set of each. When thet came they had different part numbers but was the same rubber. So I ordered from Steel Rubber Products. Their cat. said it was for a single dome top. When it came it was wrong. I called a place in Kansas. They said they had it. I ask where the get it from and they said Brothers, so I know theirs is wrong to. To make this shorter, if you ever think you will need quarter window rubber for a single dome top in a blazer, save your old ones. I found a top with the glass still in it. I busted the glass out to get the rubber out. I then softened it up and install it. Still had a hard time getting it in due to the hardness of it.. If anyone knows somewhere to get that rubber I would like to know for the future. Also if anyone would like some info on the new blazer hatches that people are selling I can give a horror story on them also.
