Seal for windshield?

The thin black rubber seal around my windshield is coming up and cracked. I know they have all of the seals for doors, T-tops, etc. But I have not found this specific one. Does anyone know where I can get it please? Its the one that goes around the outer edge if the windshield glass. thanks!

PS Sorry I wanted to put this under Body, NOT interior!

Re: Seal for windshield?

your local glass shop should be able to help you out. They'll have rolls of various profiles you can choose from and you buy it by the foot.

From 82TARECARO.... I will be getting one soon... It's the correct one, not the fat universal one used...

I got mine from Hawk's. Easy-peezy. Put a little silicone lube on the new one for an easier install.

If the old one is hard and cracking and difficult to remove, just warm it up with a heat gun when you are pulling it out. Worked like a charm. I also bought my replacement from Firebird Central.
