1979-93 Ford Mustang Door To Body Weatherstrip - Fox Body by 50resto

I installed this weatherstrip on my 1990 Mustang GT to replace the ragged factory weatherstrip that was no longer functional at all. This weatherstrip is very nice quality and fits well. Installation is straightforward: the interior trim panels surrounding the door opening need to be removed for access, then the old weather strip can be pulled right off, and the new one pressed into place. I used the palm of my hand and a rubber mallet to tap the new weatherstrip firmly into place. After installation I needed to adjust my door latch strikers; they had probably been adjusted at some time to compensate for the old, worn out weatherstrip. Now my doors close with a nice 'thud' instead of a rattle, and seal up perfectly. No more wind noise on the highway, and I can finally take the 'stang through the car wash without it raining on me! Very satisfied with this product, and great service from LRS as always.

I don't want to leave a less than 5 star review because I love Latemodel Restoration and their products have been great, however, I installed this molding on my 93 fox and the door will not close properly as a result. I don't think that it is improper installation but you never know.

It is very simple to replace the weather-stripping, seals good, no more leaks or wind noise

Install went fairly easy until it was time to shut the door. Have to SLAM the door shut now, re-adjusted the striker and there was no change. Puts so much outgoing pressure on the door that its actually hard to open as well.

Needs a thinner profile. Replaced a 12 year old weatherstrip with this, the old one was a better fit. Very disappointed, but not much of a monetary loss. This design either needs to be retooled or only the reproduction version needs to be offered.

I did the install referencing to the video, and it helped alot. Fitment to the pinch welds are good, but the rubber is a little stiff, and now the doors are hard to open and close. I bought these seals about a year ago and had them stored indoors, but the rubber seems too hard. Hopefully they will break in and make them easier to close the doors.
