JC Whitney. the 5/8 side bulb rubber stuff is fantastic!
It has no clips, a vinyl push fit with a sponge rubber side bulb that 
not only fits, but it stays on AND it even seals the doors!
I  think it only comes ion a 25' roll but it's $30 or so for the roll, 
maybe $40 now but a roll does 2 Sprites because I happen to have enough 
from a past project to do the 67 this past winter.
The doors do need a hard push to close at first but the sponge rubber 
takes shape and it works perfectly after about a week.
Again, it's the side bulb stuff, 5/8 or maybe 11/16, it is the thinnest 
side bulb weather strip.
part # xm132561   $39.95 for 25' roll.
