Fixing air leaks

Hey Guys,
Who is the best vendor to get new rubber around the windows and vents on the doors? Is it LMC or one of the others?

Also should I wait until it warms up to replace, or go ahead and do it now. I don't drive the beast that much during the winter.

Thanks in advance.

I got some from LMC and also Dennis Carpenter. You may want to check with your local auto glass shop cause som of it is universal and easy on the walet.

I got mine from Bronco Graveyard, fit was good and yes warm is better because you have to glue the stuff on and quite often need to readjust the doors too

you can use door seals out of a newer rig such as 88 to 90s. just did this on my uncles 76. in my opion the newer seals work better and you dont need no glue to hold them up theres metal strips that hold them down.
