I have not used either one myself but a friend of mine suggested to me about a year ago to use soffseal. They use that on the old dodge chargers, cudas, and roadrunners they rebuild. I also seen on ebay for about $160 the entire door seals for both doors and the rear hatch. I think this is a good deal for seals for our cars. This is just my opinion on these.

some have had good expeiriences- some have had bad- i personaly have used soff seal on my 83 camaro for the window filler weather strip, my 87GN for the t top weather striping kit, and metro on my GNs door seals- id have to say the fit on both was pretty good for the price- soff seal was alot softer and pliable IMO- but most people on the board will say- go GM, i just didnt have the money- but im happy with the turnout no more leaks.

I have soffseal around the doors on my bird and hate them with a passion. Soft is not something would claim them to be. Nor a good fit.

My old man used soff seal on my mom's 68 RS, and it turned out great and provides a great seal for her Camaro. I need to replace mine, but I'm not sure yet what I'm going to go with.
