Firebird V8-305 5.0L (1982)
FIGURE 1
There is a new service kit available for past models, (1982-1991), with CCI option (Weatherstrips, "Awnings" and Retainers).
1991 Firebird vehicles built after VIN breakpoint ML245243 will use new T-Top roof opening and panel weatherstrips.
These new weatherstrips have a drain system added to the butt joint contact areas on the opening portion of the weatherstrip, and use a new butt joint
angle at the contact areas, see Figure 1.
The new panel weatherstrip also mounts in a new retainer. The new retainer is slightly longer than previous styles and has slots in the outboard surfaces
to better retain the tabs on the outer ends of the weatherstrip.
Due to the change in butt joint angles, these new components MUST NOT BE INTERMIXED WITH PREVIOUS MODEL MATERIALS:
