C5 Corvette Colored Weatherstrip
Our 1997-2004 C5 Corvette Colored Weatherstrip Kits are a great compliment to painted fuel rail covers or other C5 Corvette Painted Engine Accessories. The colored weatherstrip kits are just like the OEM weatherstrip in fit and function but are manufactured in your choice of red, white, nassau blue or yellow. Each colored weatherstrip kit comes pre-cut and is ready to install on your C5 Corvette’s cowl and battery surround. Installation of the C5 Corvette colored weatherstrip is simple, just remove the stock weatherstrip and fit the colored weatherstrip in its place. No tools are required and installation takes about two minutes. After installing our colored weatherstrip on your C5 Corvette you will be amazed at how such a simple Corvette part could look so great.

Corvette Door Strap
Installing new door weatherstrip on your Corvette can sometimes cause issues when you go to close your door for the first time. Here is a great way to “break in” the new weatherstrip on your Corvette. Using a small binder strap between the doors is how we break in new Corvette Door Weatherstrip seals during final assembly. This is important if you do not want to tweak your Corvette’s exterior door panels, potentially causing body ripples, especially if the paint work is very refined which allows the tiniest imperfections to be seen. We install J-Hooks to the inside of the door by drilling a small 1/4 inch hole at the bottom or top of the door (with door panel removed) depending on where the rubber is the tightest. Hook the binder to the J-Hooks and tighten, then just click it a notch more every two to three days and this will do the trick. Remove the door catch or striker before doing this for no restriction. Once the doors close easily on their own you can re-install the striker and “voila” perfect sealing and no door distortion! Note it is best to have the seats removed when performing this.
