I got turned on to them from watching my classic car with Dennis Gage.
I need to replace the weather stripping on my 86 Z28 and checked their site for prices.

Made up a small brace with a bit of power brake hose over it. This bolts to the rear fender,slips into an existing channel behind battery box.
