[DML] Re: Replacing door weatherstripping

["conundrum1984" <jeepno1_397@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I know my inner door weatherstripping is at least 10 years old.  They 
are ripped in some places.  Also, whoever installed them last put them 
on wrong to begin with.  Who would have just plain weatherstripping?  
DMCH? PJ Grady? Special T Auto?  I see it listed on all of their 
sites, but doesn't really say if it's the thick kind or not.

Thanks,
Matt
