Cliff, >>Can someone explain in details what these rubber stops look like and how they attach. Also, why are they free? Being that I live in the Northeast I am forever cleaning crud out of the channel at the bottom of both front doors. This sounds like something I want to do but I would like more info.>> It is free because it is from a TSB which has been out for several years, in fact even before the '94 Impalas hit the streets! Specifically it is Chevrolet TSB #431006 which was issued 02/02/94 and is titled: DIRT BUILD-UP ON ROCKER AND LOWER INBOARD DOOR SURFACE. I will attach the text of the TSB to the end of this message, note that there is a figure which shows the seals, you can view it on the Techline disc or at your local dealer... Scott.
