Hi! I need to replace the side window moldings on front and rear passenger and driver side windows. I think these are also called “belts”. They are literally crumbling. I have found OEM from $50 - $70 each. I have also found all four for $40 on eBay and Amazon. Does anyone have any experience fitting the low priced aftermarket moldings? With winter coming in Michigan I need to replace these ASAP and would rather save money even if I have to sacrifice longevity. So, will the cheap ones work?

Thanks for any help!

I’ve looked online and at local dealerships and found the best price for OEM is $50-ish for each. Local pick up so no shipping. The aftermarket ones seem to be of poor quality so I have decided to splash out for OEM. Kind of expensive but I am more confident they will fit and perform as expected.
