I need to replace the beltline moldings on my 69 GT500. I read many good reviews about Daniel Carpenters weatherstripping kits, however, they don't seem to make the door beltline inner/outer weatherstrip. Repops and PUI beltline kits gets mixed reviews. Would appreciate any recommendations. Thank you.

I just installed the Repops versions, and am not impressed. Their kit is for a 1970, so it mounts differently. It will flop around unless I drill a hole in my doors to screw in the ends.

I bought the 68s and 69s sets off of Brant last year. Here was his post here. He may still have the pass side available. https://www.saac.com/forum/index.php?topic=30657.msg219096#msg219096

Do you know the difference?
