    Hello!

    Im so glad that I found this awesome forum.
    I'm from sweden and I have finally managed to buy my first "older" american car, Im so happy!

    Now, I'm going to replace the weatherstrip/ seal around the doors of my Caprice Classic-77.

    https://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/chevrolet,1977,caprice,5.7l+350cid+v8,1036460,body,door+seal+/+weatherstrip,1430

    Can anyone confirm if I can use any of these seals and do I need any glue etc. to perform the work?
    I have seen some small white plastic T-shaped pins under the old seal, should I get new ones aswell and does anyone know where I can find them in that case?

    Thanks in advance! Very Happy

    Yes use glue the stuff you need is called weather strip adhesive. Typically the clips come along with the new rubbers. Good luck. Check my youtube channel cfmechanic. I check YouTube more often then here.
