Torn driver door weatherstripping
Just bought a 2008 F150 4 Door Super Crew XLT. It's my first F150 and I love it. But it has about a 2 feet section on the driver door weatherstripping that has ripped off of the base and just kinda hangs. I've tried looking around and can't find much other than questionable generic seals and the ford part for $130.
So my question is where would you suggest for buying a replacement strip.
Also, if I end up going to a salvage yard to see if I can nab a good seal off an old truck, what years would be compatible with a 2008?
Thanks

04-08 have the same doors... in 09+ the supercrew front door is longer.
is it ripped or just hanging? if it's hanging and the spot that slides on the lip of the door frame don't seem to hold, gently squeeze it shut with some pliers and put it back on. I think there is some metal molded in that spot that can stretch and stop it from staying put
