Source for weatherstrip
I need to replace the weatherstrip on the trunk. Does anyone know if there is a place to get it cheaper than GMPartsDirect? They want $46. Seems high. Hoping to find it a little cheaper.

its not new. It was pulled off an alero at the junkyard from a 2004. The rubber looks great and is in good condition.

Age has deteriorated mine to the point that water is leaking in, so yes, I would prefer to put a new one on and not have to worry about it for the foreseeable lifespan of the car.

The door weatherstrip is color coded to your interior. The rubber that laps over the trim panels along the bottom edge of the door, and the a-piller, etc. is part of the weatherstrip.
