Okay I have a question... Today I went outside to take of my t-tops to go ride around, and I noticed that a piece of the outer weather stripping had broken off. Don't know how or when. Anyways is there any way to replace that piece or am I screwed and I have to buy new t-tops. I attached a picture below of the piece (I don't have any pictures of it with part missing).

Thanks for any help.

i cant tell what that arrow is pointing at , but if it is the little plastic "lip" , then you can just replace it .

 

yea, maybe this picture is better... And if you are able to replace it... How would I go about that... Where would I get weather stripping for that and how would I remove the existing one and replace it with the new one.

 

ahaha i have the same question i want to replace that stupid rubber piece too.

mine got stuck in the door and got all bent out of shape, i had to blowdry the piece last week to bend it back into shape and now the door closes properly, but it still looks a little fu'd up

 

yes i want answers as well! my t-tops look like crap that rubber piece is all out of wack

 

i have problims with my tops too....my windows go on the outside of the seal when i close the door. why i donno.... my hinges arent saging and the door shuts fine. anyone know why?

 

Get the parts number CD and look up the GM Parts number. You should be able to order the Part number online from Rockauto.com

 

mine does the same thing. Anyone know what price range a new set would be?

 

You can get the numbers off my site (check sig), check prices using GMParts Direct and here are the instructions to replace it...

 

awesome

my window actually on one side went outside part of the window seal at the front too...

the door wouldn't shut properly for a long time and i only figured out it was the t-tops a couple of months ago, i thought it was some other part of the door making a loud knack when it closed.

so i took the t-tops off 2 weeks ago, brought them in the basement, got a blowdryer, heated up the rubber, and bent it back to shape. now my door closes properly, but the stripping is still a little bent....

 

Kinda on the same note, My t tops have a few scratches in the lexan. Is it possible to wet sand them down and then buff it out? Also is there some way to recoat them after this is done? Thanks

 

from the chevy house they are like $30 a door (i think, it's been about 6 months since i replaced mine)

 

My rubber pieces are fine on my car, they are just faded, i was wondering if it would be ok to spray paint it black again?? or would that be a bad idea??? just wondering..I repainted the metal trim on the t-tops and it looks great....i was just thinking about painting the faded sides..but hell i dont know...someone give me some insight on this

 

There is actually a product you can buy that you rub on and it will blacken the rubber right up. I cant remember the name offhand, but ive used it and it works great, you just have to rub for a while.
