Sourcing interior parts for a '79 C30

I have to re-do all the door weather striping, window felt seals, vent window seals, felt window tracks and vinyl floor mat. Who has the better parts out there?
I ordered a mess of stuff off RockAuto last week for the drive train/engine, but I was hesitant on these interior parts due to quality and how well they'd fit (especially the floor mat).

Also have to look into floor sound deadener and A/C vent hoses for (what I'm told) is the aftermarket A/C system.

Also, does anyone know where to get 2 piece saddle blanket seat covers? All I can find are 1 piece covers, Walmart was the only one who listed a 2 piece cover... for the healthy price of $160.

Any help/direction is appreciated!

I would highly recommend USA1 Industries. When it comes to the seals, just make sure they are from Precision or get them from Precision. They can even restore your vent windows for you. The floor mat, just make sure it’s ACC, it should fit fine.

Thanks, I've seen Precision and USA1 mentioned quite a bit here. They seem like go-to businesses for stuff for our trucks. Checked out ACC too, nice quality mats!

Re: Sourcing interior parts for a '79 C30

For the window seals I suggest you try to find OEM as those will be the best fit, but cost more. Here are some ideas for '77-87 trucks:

Door to window seal inner: GM p/n 15569071, or 470434
Door to window seal inner: GM p/n 15569072, or 470433
Door to window seal outer: GM p/n 14027775, or 345781
Door to window seal outer: GM p/n 14027776, or 345782

I bought (2) cheap 1 piece saddle blanket seat covers off Amazon and my friend cut and sewed them into a 2 piece set. Works great and is getting me through until I can afford a real seat covers.

Good numbers, I'll search around and see what's floating around for NOS stuff.

Hey that's an idea! Having the one piece cover isn't that big of a deal, but this truck has the latching flip forward back... and I'd like to find one of those plastic organizer shelves to put behind the seat. But since I haven't procured one yet, I'll probably order a 1 piece to keep the seat protected.
