What are the thicknesses of the various prime door weather-seals?

How do your weather seals compare with the factory models? In some cases I still see light coming through which I assume air can come through. I would like to find a thicker type of kerf mounted seal to eliminate this issue.

The 58-008 magnetic prime door seal is used on steel doors. Is your prime door steel or wood? If it's wood, you might want to consider our 58-201. instead.

The thickness of the material doesn't matter so much. A hollow weatherstripping will create just as much of a seal as foam-filled weatherstripping. What matters is that they're the proper size to close the gap.
