Whatever you buy make sure it is GM sealed if you are going NOS. Ask me how I know this ? :cheers:

Did you get scammed,I bought an NOS A pillar WS and the box was opened. At first I thought I got scammed but compared it to the one on my car and looks the same. Does the OEM part have a part number on it?

As Jeff and GC mentioned, factory sealed is very important if NOS since it’s quite old now. One that I bought came in a huge GM box that had the large sealed foil bag inside. Once the foil bag is opened I guess it is compromised for long term storage. I didn’t see if there was an actual GM part number 10268887 was on the weatherstrip itself. The Corvette shop in Japan tried their best to save the original weatherstrip when I replaced the windshield, but could not and I was not there to see them break the seal of the foil bag.

Attachment 11788

I was fortunate that my insurance company gave me $3400 to replace my delaminated windshield as a safety issue based on current replacement cost for all the GM parts and labor. After the claim they told me they should not have done it and it was a mistake.

I heard this reproduction weatherstrip is the best one out there if you can’t find or willing to pay for the OEM NOS one. Best wishes as they are harder and harder to find now.

Not only concerned with being scammed but also integrity of an expensive part. I have seen OEM weatherstrip never used but degraded to a point where it was literally disintegrating and crumble.

Never again on NOS WS, even if in the original GM bag. Just to risky due to old age.
Fresh stuff from Corvette Rubber from now on.
