A connection end is provided, defined by a first longitudinally extending edge of the main body portion, and is configured for permanently connecting the weather strip seal to a first vehicle component. A coupling end is provided, opposite the connection end, defined by a second longitudinally extending edge of the main body portion, and is configured for removably coupling the weather strip seal to a second first vehicle component. A magnetic sealing mechanism is provided to removably couple the weather strip seal to the second vehicle component.
