4K Weather stripping:

[Cory Meyer]

I priced the weatherstripping for my 85' 4kq and was quoted $150 a 
door.  I've checked with Rod at thepartsconnection.com and he said it was a 
dealer only part.     SO....   I spent $30 at a local junk yard for a good 
set of stripping out of a 4ks and door handles.
