[Marty Escarcega]

Ok, who has the magical $1k kit? I'd like to see it.
Much appreciated.

I was of the thought that 1K for the rubber was high too...

Until I looked at everything in there.  It's a BOATLOAD of stuff, some 
of which you cannot get anywhere else. 


Most of the cars have bad rubber all around.  If it's bad in one spot, 
it's likley bad in others...

Areas like the small triangular window rubbers you won't find anywhere 
else.

Sure, the door window channel rubber and the edge moulding is readily 
available, as are the grommets, etc, but honestly, by the time you 
"piecemeal" it all together, you'd be better off buying a set for the 1K 
and be done with it.


Just my 2 cents, which isn't even worth that.
