NOS door glass weather strip about 2'' short both sides, any ideas
-
Just confirming that your referring to the roof line (over the top of the side windows) weather strip?

Yes, roof line door glass seal. I have 2 NOS sets both sets are 4'' too short. Thanks Jeff

If that long spongy weather strip was only 2 inches short then I would suggest that it could be stretched and made to fit. Have has to scrunch or stretch a number of them over the years on other years. Not sure if you can get 4 inches out of each one - your call.
These may have been defective or made short and that is the reason they never made it on to a car and instead sat on a shelf all these years. Happens with allot of NOS and service parts when age, box wear and other issues have caused earlier potential buyers to pass them by

Had to be a miscue when made. Purchased on eBay several years ago, no return now. Original RH weatherstrip is in excellent condition,considering reinstalling. Anyone with good used LH driver side roof rail weatherstrip, would be interested. Thanks
