Re: OMG Honda door weatherstripping fits perfect no cutting required !!

Mrlobster glad to hear they fit great,If anything on my 71 I wish they would of been a touch longer.I wonder if it depends on what year or factory door seals were made at.My were from a 09 civic.Thanks for the feedback.

Re: OMG Honda door weatherstripping fits perfect no cutting required !!

I have yet to find original style glue on or the newer replacement press on seals that haven't required door slamming. So, personally, I don't care who makes it or what car it was intended for, if it works better than the new repro stuff, I'll buy it. Currently have press ons and they suck as many have noted. But I put those on because the original replacement glue ons sucked too. So, if you have used original style glue on type that don't require door slamming, please provide the exact part number and mfgr. In the meantime, I might be calling Mr. Honda. I'd be curious to know - if someone buys the Honda seals new how the door closing goes for you. Hopefully this isn't just a case of slightly used seals work fine but brand new require slamming. Very interested in this - thanks for posting!

EDIT - and since precision seals is a vendor here, I'd like to hear them address the door slamming issue that everyone is complaining about. It doesn't improve with time. That is what I currently have on my truck btw. I've manipulated the pinch weld to improve things as much as possible, but door closing is still pretty lousy imo.

I have a brand new one on the passenger side and a used one on the driver side. I can't tell a difference. They both work great.

Re: OMG Honda door weatherstripping fits perfect no cutting required !!

In Canada, new ones direct from Honda are $200.00 for the pair...$60.00 for a used set was much more palatable. I'm not sure the exact year, I just gave them the range and they pulled them for me.

Will seals from a 4 dr work? Are they too short?

Re: OMG Honda door weatherstripping fits perfect no cutting required !!

Ok, thanks. The U Pull it near me doesn't have any 2 dr hondas and only one 4 dr. I may get the ones from the 4 dr and splice them.

Re: OMG Honda door weatherstripping fits perfect no cutting required !!

The part number is right but they sent you earlier model or there for an Accord.
Been awhile since I was at junkyard looking at them.

305 replaced A01. MIGHT have something to do with them being wrong.

Re: OMG Honda door weatherstripping fits perfect no cutting required !!

Why won't precision address the fitment issue ? They make good stuff but are really hurting their reputation with these door seals. IMO

I've had my precision push-on door seals installed for years now. Still not "broken in." I doubt they ever will so I give up and am doing something else too. I am so freaking sick of slamming the doors over and over.

The push on seals from Precision I have installed in my 1972 GMC fit flawlessly and they have never needed a "break in" period. They seal great and the doors open and close like they did when the truck rolled off the assembly line. These seals are a great product.

Re: OMG Honda door weatherstripping fits perfect no cutting required !!

If your door won’t shut, remove the seal and use a block of wood and a mallet to bend the pinch weld in slightly. Reinstall seals. Done. Two of my trucks had no issues with the seals, one had to have the pinch weld “adjusted”. This goes for any seal, not just push ons.
