Default What is it called?

What is the strip of fuzzy stuff that is mounted on both sides of the front door and qtr window glass? I think I found it once on the Steele Rubber site but I didn't book mark it.

window sweeps, I have a 30 that I have been trying to find a fix for the outer part of the window so this is what I came up with , bought 4of the 61-64 ford fairlane flexible sweeps, and made my own worked out perfect. I do not know how to place pictures of what I do as soon as I figure that out I will post

Belt line weatherstrip, aka cat whiskers. I got bulk strips, I think 4 or 5 ft long pieces from restoration specialties several years ago. Can also find it on eBay.
