Call Greg at AntiVenom in Seffner 813-690-0175. There isn't anything he can't do with a Corvette. Local for you also. I drive over from Largo and well worth the drive. If it isn't perfect it doesn't leave his shop. If you want to do it yourself, maybe he can give you advice as well.

I have to second that comment:thumbsup::iagree:

He and his crew did all of the weatherstripping on my 87 and they did a great job. Very reasonable too.

Give him a call or get with him on here.:thumbsup:

Luis, it's one of those learn as you go things not really that hard if your handy, have you had the door panels off your car yet? if the answer is no maybe your better off taking the guys advise and have someone do it for you. getting the door panel off without breaking something is probably the hardest part. the strip on the body side of the door is riveted so you'll need a rivet gun or I have heard some people say they re-attached the new strip with screws. You have to drill out the rivets to get the old strip off and be real careful or you'll end up with a new vent hole on the outside of your door...not good. The strip on the door panel is attached with wire staples, and again it takes a little ingenuity to get the new strip back on securely. While you have the door panel off it's a great time to clean, lube and do general repair, usually the door panels are showing there age and starting to crack so anything you can do to reinforce them is a plus. Hope this helps a little..Good luck:thumbsup:
