Buying interior stuff

I'm ordering some stuff today and was curious if LMC was about the same price as others on stuff like, window gaskets, glove box, dash lens, inside stuff.......


I was cutting carpet out for my truck late Saturday afternoon and let the utility knife slip on the last dad-gum cut. I'm out of commission now for a while. It went in at the knuckle and came out my finger nail! It ripped it to the bone! HURT is not strong enough word... any how figured I would get some stuff ordered and on the way while I'm recovering...

Ah crap, sorry to hear about the mishap with the utility knife. Anyway, LMC can be cheaper on some stuff, but you take the risk of getting what you pay for. I have been happy with most things I've bought from LMC, but for things that need to fit right (like window gaskets) you might want to check out Dennis Carpenter. His stuff can be expensive, but it's OEM quality so you do get what you pay for. I debated many times when I was fixing up my 75 on a budget and was gonna go with cheaper rubber gaskets to save coin, but for piece of mind I went with Dennis Carpenter and couldn't be happier. You might also want to check out Broncograveyard.

Ouch on the cut, at least its still there. I lost my middle finger tip to a table saw, talk about OUCH.

Yes you get what you pay for with LMC, JBG has great seal/window weather stripping, I will purchase from them again.

I have used JC Whitney for interior parts for a previous Ford and was satisfied. The best part was that their shipping was always free.

No experience with their windshield windshield gasket. But the door stuff is a great fit.
