Re: [Chrysler300] Ciao from ITALY!! Rear windshield wetherstrip

["Ron Waters" <ronbo97@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Roby -

Congratulations on your purchase. That looks like a pretty solid car you're
starting out with.

The 57-8 rear window weatherstrip should be the same for all Chryslers with
the larger rear window, including New Yorkers and 300s. If at all possible,
reuse your original, as the reproduction stuff is not as good. If yours is
dry rotted or unusable, then I would try to find a replacement. A post to
the listserver would facilitate this.

Ron
