Steel, metro or soft-seal for door weatherstripping?

Whats the verdict?  I've read some posts and most recommend metro.  Steel is quite expensive, around $150 for a set.  Metro about $110 and soft seal about $90.

I don't have any experience with the other two, but we sold a lot of Metro and people seemed happy with it. I have used it on several of my cars with no problem.

Thanks Larry.  I think I may have been a little off on my prices.  SS396 sells the metro for about $70 with shipping.  Odd that the metro web site wants $101 just for the pair of door weaterstripping.

I would go with Metro Moulded Parts. I have a few pieces on my car that fit quite well, actually better than the originals. They're also a local company-manufactured right here in Coon Rapids MN (about 3 miles from my house).
