Anyone come up with an aftermarket replacement for the totally worthless sliding roof panal weather strip on the 91-95 Thunderbirds?
The retail price for the weatherstrip is over $150!!! (Wholesale is around $117.00 to $120.00 (US), depending on where you live.
I have replaced this WS 6 times now in the past 10 years....after a couple of years,it shrinks about 2 inches and won't stay on the track. (No matter what adhesive I have used!)
I am thoroughly disgusted. Ford will not respond any longer..."Car is out of warranty". It is definitely a design flaw and I would bet that a small claims action against FoMoCo would result in a positive ruling in my favor. (Specially here in Nevada!)
So, any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
