Description
Roof Rail Weatherstrip Channel Kit – 6 Piece Set – 1970–1972 Chevelle Malibu 2-Door Coupe | Stainless Steel | X-Parts by AMD
Restore proper roof rail weatherstrip mounting and factory-style sealing performance with this OE-style Roof Rail Weatherstrip Channel Kit for 1970–1972 Chevrolet Chevelle and Malibu 2-door Coupe models. This high-quality reproduction kit includes all six roof rail weatherstrip channels required for complete installation on coupe applications.
Manufactured from durable stamped stainless steel, each channel is formed to the correct factory dimensions for authentic appearance and OE-style fitment. Designed to properly retain and support the roof rail weatherstripping, these reproduction channels feature correct pre-drilled mounting holes and factory-style plastic coated retainers for accurate installation and long-lasting performance.
Original roof rail channels commonly become rusted, bent, damaged, or corroded after decades of exposure and weatherstrip replacement, making replacement essential during restoration projects and body repairs. These reproduction channels help restore proper door glass sealing, weatherstrip positioning, and factory-style fitment on your classic GM A-body coupe.
Unlike the drip rail molding, which is the decorative polished trim mounted along the outer roof drip rail edge, the roof rail weatherstrip channels and retainers mount along the inner roof line above the door opening. Their primary function is to hold the roof rail weatherstrip rubber in position and provide the sealing surface that the side glass compresses against when the doors are closed. Together, the drip rail molding and roof rail weatherstrip channels form the complete roof-to-door sealing system on 1970–1972 Chevelle and Malibu coupe models.
Ideal for restoration projects, weatherstrip replacement, or replacing damaged original retainers, this reproduction kit helps restore proper sealing performance and factory appearance to your classic Chevrolet A-body.
Offered as an X-Parts component by AMD, this roof rail weatherstrip channel kit delivers the fit, appearance, and quality expected for premium GM restoration work.
