Weather Strip options?
Looking for replacing the trashed/torn non exsistant weather stripping in my 1995 4 door. I have heard that the '97+ works also in all years and provides both a better seal and is thicker/more durable.
Can any one confirm this? Also is it worth the extra money, on this website, http://www.teamcherokee.com/Weatherstrip/index.html there is a $70 per door difference. I can pick up the stuff for my year for about $30 a door vs almost $100 per door for the '97+ stuff.
Any input would be nice.
Thanks!

I used fox body weatherstripping found here on my front doors, its about 8" too long but can be easily cut to fit and otherwise works perfectly...

I know places... i was more curious if the huge price in the cost is worth it... and it sounds like 1 person says so... On RockAuto I could only find stripping for older models not the '97+

Reduced the wind noise on mine but I've got the opening wing windows. They're a little noisy.
Oddly enough I moved the front rail of my roof rack from nearly above the front doors to about 1/2 way back down the roof and things got quieter wind noise wise.
