My problem is I have to remove the clips to screw it to the door panel and I don't want to hurt the felt with a grinder this is on a 1989 Ford Ranger but I don't see how to remove the clips

I have a 1993 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera, your website doesn't have replacements for my car, do you have any recommendations on what I could use?

Hey there, thank you for reaching out to us about your vehicle. I wanted to double check our product listings and you are right, the only direct fit replacement part we have for your '93 Oldsmobile is a trunk gasket. I would recommend taking a look through our Universal line where we have 100+ universal parts that may fit your vehicle. We can also do free sample pieces of almost any of our universal parts, that way you can test fit to make sure something works for your car before purchasing anything.
I will attach a link to our Universal line here: www.steelerubber.com/universal-landing
We can also mail you a printed catalog if you would like. You can fill out the form to request that here: www.steelerubber.com/request-universal-catalog
If you would like to speak to a product specialists more in depth about finding replacement parts for your car, please don't hesitate to reach out to us! You can call us at 800-447-0849 or email us at [e-mail]. Thank you so much for watching!

Hi! I'm facin an issue with my 1994 Ford Probe GT.
Original spares for the window weatherstipes do not exist anymore, not even on ebay.
I was unable to find a compatible product here in México City. There are like the "universal" ones but they don't work for my vehicle.
Do you happen to have anything that can save my car? Maybe not the original, I understand, but something that can be fit into my door and do the job would be awesome.
Thanks in advance!

Hey there! I spoke with a member of our Research & Development team to get recommendations for any of our universal parts that may work for your car. Since we don't have a direct fit replacement, we can only recommend parts that MIGHT fit your vehicle, but we can't guarantee they would work. Below, I have included links to 5 different beltline weatherstrips that we would recommend trying. We offer free samples of these parts, so I would strongly recommend emailing our customer service department at [e-mail] to request samples of these parts so you can do a test fit on your vehicle before purchasing anything! Please let me know if we can be of any further help. Thank you for watching!!

nice but what would have been really nice is to show us the glue you would recommend

I think that is the 3M Black Weatherstrip Adhesive. #08008

Hey there, we apologize for the delay in our response to your comment. That is a great question! When installing windowfelts, we recommend using 3M Urethan Adhesive. I will attach a link here for that product listing on our website: www.steelerubber.com/urethane-adhesive-96-8693-96
Again, we apologize for not responding sooner to your question. Thank you so much for watching!

Which adhesive to use?

[@SteeleRubberProducts]

Hello! When installing windowfelts, we recommend using the 3M Urethane Adhesive. It is a fast-curing adhesive that creates a high-strength bond that is perfect for mounting beltline weatherstrips. I will attach a link to the product listing on our website here: www.steelerubber.com/urethane-adhesive-96-8693-96
Thank you so much for watching!
