I'm in the midst of replacing all weatherstripping and window trim sweep moulding felt etc on my 79 bu wagon. I got metro weatherstripping for the doors but where can the best window trim n runner felts be had. Also need rear window n tailgate to of which I've read best replacement stuff out is back caravan seals. I welcome all feedback, thanks.

As far as the window sweeps, I purchased mine on Ebay. Other than OEM, they're going to be the best you can find out there.

For the window run channel, we've had an ongoing discussion as to what to use, etc.
If you do a search on the site, you'll find various threads on the subject.

For the rear hatch seal, I'd recommend going to a well stocked junkyard and poke around the minivans. The Caravan/ Voyager seal to use would likely be from a late '90's, early 2000's.
