Is there a lockstrip available that duplicates/approximates the original? [And, no, the gm type with the rounded top that shows up all over ebay is not the one I'm looking for!] Would the Dodge Trucks for those years be a source? TIA --Walt Jackson |

Unless it's somehow different, the lockstrip canbe purchased out of Australia. http://www.pentastarparts.com.au/sunsho ... ail&p=1087 |

The Australian lockstrip has a smooth/rounded contour, like the GM truck stuff. (the one you've linked to is black, not chrome. Echk, do not want.) |

You may want to check with a local auto glass shop. I've been able to locate some generic strip that way |

hello W L J, various widths of that lock strip are available in Australia. I take it that the profile that you want is important? if you can post a close-up pic of the profile,I will check my local supplier of such stuff,and see how we go. precise measurements will be helpful too. regards,Rod |
