Slide out seals and weatherstripping

Just wondering if seals and weatherstripping is dealer only or generic materials available other place. Also how difficult it would be to replace myself.

There's a company that specializes in seals, weatherstripping, etc. I found them when restoring an old car, they make stuff for RV's too.

Depends on the rig and type of seals. I did mine myself. Everything was available online and I saved thousands over paying a shop. The exception is possibly the inside seal when the slide is extended. Mine were good and did not need replacing. Those would have required removing the slides.

Yes, Steelerubber was the website I bought all of what was necessary to replace my slide seals. Don't forget to purchase some 3m adhesive remover (38984) and I highly recommend the plastic scraper tool they sell. That 3m stuff and that tool have come in handy for dozens of other projects!
