02 Camaro Window sweep
Hey, anyone can help? My right handside (pass side) outer window sweep is coming up and broken. I suspect the metal tabs are not doing their job. I have tried to push down and repair it but to no avail.
Anyone know where to buy a new one at a decent price, online?
thanks

I ordered some aftermarket ones from Hawks third gen and the fit was horrible. The built in clips that hold them on didnt line up right with the holes on the door and they didnt have enough clamping power to keep them on nice and tight. I ended up pulling the clips off, drilling holes in the sweeps and installing speed nuts and stainless screws to hold them on. In the end they came out looking working great, but they were a MAJOR pain in the *** to install.

P.S. moral of the story: just buy the GM ones if you can. They are twice the price of the aftermarket ones but I'm guessing it would save you a ton of work.
