I have a 2 dr '87 XJ and wanted to upgrade to the new '97-'01 style weather stripping. I ordered a front set from Team Cherokee. The Team Cherokee site states:
"Door Opening Seal OEM Cherokee 1997-2001
These Are The FACTORY ORIGINAL Door Opening Seal Around The Door Opening For Each Door On All Jeep Cherokees From 1997-2001. We Are Selling The Seals For The Front Doors & The Rear Doors. The Front Door Opening Seals Will Work For Both 2-Door & 4-Door Front Doors. The Factory Has Made These To Fit The 2-Doors With Out Any Cutting & The 4-Door Models Only Need To Snip A Few Inches Off The One End For Which You Just Attach The Opposite Side To The Inner Seal To Make It Snap Into Place For A Snug Fit."
However they do not fit 2dr XJ's they are about 1.5' too short. I was ready to pull off the one I installed so i could ship it back.. but I've been unable to find any late model 2 door seals online.. I'm worried I might have to make what I've got work by filling in the 1.5' gap with junk yard stripping..
I've googled.. and checked all the sites I could.. no luck.
Please help..
