I'm curious as how to refurbish my driver's side weather stripping just above the door, where the window rolls all the way down/meets the door. Does anyone have any tips, or is it cheaper to just buy a new piece from Honda?

Thanks.

I have to buy them for both sides. The chrome under the rubber is showing. They're like $50 a piece.

make sure you sand them down and strip off all that **** so it's bare metal you are painting

Just because they look nice doesn't mean they serve thier purpose. If the rubber is gone the strips are pointless. They're there to stop water from getting in the door and messing up the internals. Trust me...I know. Everytime it rains I have the damned'est time getting my window down. As soon as the weather in the North East gets its act together I'll be pulling my doors apart to relube everything and put new strips on.

if you go to pepboy's they have a special rubbery tape that you can use for the molding

you got an illustration on where the clips are? i'm notoriously known for breaking **** on my car

If your looking for replacement just go to a junkyard...i got mine for 2 bucks...
