Great product!

2 things that will make the doors easier to close is making sure you cut a angled piece out of each end of the bulbous seal where they meet under the door seal ( this allows trapped air a route to escape and is specified in the Factory service manual for door seal installation in the cab section of your repair manuals ) where the 2 ends meet the angled cuts in bulb portion of the seal should form a inverted V shape= ____/\_____
Also apply armor all or use a rubber lubricate on the bulbous seal to remove the mold release material on the bulbous portion of the seal ( when the rubber is hot it allows a easy release from the metal of the extrusion machines but once cool it actually creates friction on metal to rubber ).
We plan on adding the Precision Weatherstrip Lube to the site in the next week or 2 for those making future purchases. This lube significantly reduces friction between metal & rubber and helps prolong the life of the rubber by keeping it supple as rubber is prone to hardening & cracking over a extended period of time.
THANKS!! for your review. We look forward to any and all reviews as it helps us to better develop our products we bring to market.
