NEVER USE JIM'S!!!!!!!  I've never heard a good word about them.   Rude lady on the phone....prices changing within minutes of calling....exc  There are plenty of other companies who want your business.  :2cents:

Well, I used DMT (Detroit Muscle Technologies) for my 70 Challenger. DMT produces nice seals, plugs and insulations. I have mine for about six months installed. Everything ok.  http://www.ebay.com/itm/DMT-MOPAR-70-74-E-71-74-B-Body-Hood-to-Cowl-Seal-clips-installed-Barracuda-/360798817728?pt=Vintage_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Model%3AChallenger&hash=item5401490dc0&vxp=mtr

Personally, I would go USED with this piece.  The new ones are just for show.  They're all compressed right out of the package and I doubt they actually seal to the hood.  Originals should clean up nicely with a tire cleaning product.  :2cents:

I definitely second that opinion, go with someone else.
