Zforce Posted April 7, 2010 Share #50 Posted April 7, 2010 All I can say is wow, the best 10.00 plus the 2.00 admission to the salvage yard I have spent. The yard I went to had to kia's, I got the left side off one and the right from the other. Took all of ten minutes to install.

zKars Posted April 8, 2010 Share #51 Posted April 8, 2010 Alrighty then. Just got off the phone with Brian at kiaparts.com ( 877-313-4139). Real helpful guy. Anxious to expand his on-line business. Doesn't normally deal with out of country requests, but after I explained the potential market, he got REAL helpful.I just ordered 12 gaskets, $40.93 each. (BTW, over the counter price is $63). This is the bottom line, no discounts for higher volumes. It will take a week to get the stock, then 10 days to get to me. Geezer, you might want to contact him directly now that we know he is Canada friendly, can't see it making $$ sense for you to have me ship a set to you after they get to me.Dan, I'm including your set in the 12. Either one of us can use it as excuse to get in the Z and drive to meet up this spring. I'll let you know when they are in. Rest of the 12 are spoken for. Lots of angry door slammers in this neck of the woods.By the way, my request for pricing and info from www.kiaglobalparts.com has so far been ignored.Jim Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/34633-kia-sportage-weatherstip-rocks/?page=5#findComment-315431 Share on other sites More sharing options...
geezer Posted April 8, 2010 Share #52 Posted April 8, 2010 Makes sense and thanks for the leg work Jim. I will give him a call in the morning.

warcmalla Posted April 8, 2010 Share #53 Posted April 8, 2010 Brian called me a few minutes ago from kiaparts.com and told me some guy from Canada bought 12 and they don't have any in stock. He also said that they didn't have any left anywhere in the states and that mine would be coming on the slow boat from Korea. He told me to expect them around the first week in June.

Arne Posted April 8, 2010 Share #54 Posted April 8, 2010 Brian called me a few minutes ago from kiaparts.com and told me some guy from Canada bought 12 and they don't have any in stock. He also said that they didn't have any left anywhere in the states and that mine would be coming on the slow boat from Korea. He told me to expect them around the first week in June.And earlier in this thread...Now there will be a rush on Kia Sportage weatherstripping, and the Kia corporate types will spend countless hours testing and trying to figure out why so many Sportages are having weather strip replacements, yet are not coming to the dealership...

zKars Posted April 8, 2010 Share #55 Posted April 8, 2010 HA! he called me too after he actually looked for stock. Seems they only have ONE actual WS left in the US. More from Korea will be here May 26! So much for a this marvelous idea. Well, its just delayed a little. Patience Grasshopper....Yes, Arne, I'de love to be a fly on the wall when the Kia Engineers wonder what the HELL is going on over in North America!

I'll let you know when they are in. JimJim: That sounds great, pm me as to how you want payment, thanks for doing this. Looking out the window it sure looks like spring is not going to here any time soon.Dan Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/34633-kia-sportage-weatherstip-rocks/?page=5#findComment-315472 Share on other sites More sharing options...
