Which vendor has the best fitting vent window rubbers and window felt kit? Are they all the same?

I bought some from vent window rubber from bronco graveyard, I was not happy at all with the fit.. I disliked them so much that I soaked my originals in armor all and reused them. I was able to return them no problem. I did use their anti-rattlers and window felt and they worked pretty good. My main complaint about the vent rubber was that it was not the same in the front lower corners and did not even seal the window frame. I wish I had taken pictures to show you. Can't say anything about others versions, but most of the aftermarket stuff I have purchased has not been the same fit or quality as the original parts.. I'm not downing the graveyard at all, I have had great customer service and bought tons of parts from them as well as every other vendor.. I just wasn't happy either those pieces.

My replacement rubber on the wing window is already trashed. They just don't make any rubber products that last anymore.
If you are talking about the felt that keeps the wing window in the frame. use window urethane or get some black silicone instead.

I replaced all my window felt and got it from the bronco graveyard, it fit pretty good but now the window rolls up and down really tight, maybe it needs to wear in a little bit. One tip for you if you replace the felt, take off the inside door panel and remove the lower rubber bumper on the bottom of the door, now you can roll the window down lower, this gives you more room to replace the felt where the window comes up through the door.
