Default Weather stripping

I got an 89 covt and I need new weather stripping and I dont want to do it my self.. Where should I take it to have it done? Would an autobody shop be able to do it? Or would a mechanic be able to do it??

Its actually not that hard. If you take out a few screws and clips and pull on stuff then you can replace weater stripping. The only tool that you will need other than a screwdriver and maybe a ratchet is some black 3m weatherstrip adhesive. Its a simple job that someone who barely works on cars can do. Only just dont stretch it too much.

Well I had a hard time with the passenger side but the drivers side was easy to fix. The passenger side just need a Ford run channel weaterstrip to fix its problems. The driver took a repro and it works just like the Ford one. They arent hard to adjust just a little time consuming.
