Thanks. Do you know what the covers are called? I've seen drip edges. But not sure if that's them
unless the t top bar comes with them

Those t bars are glued to the body of the car. Hard to get off without bending or distorting them.

Salt must've gotten between the t tops glass and that bar seal to be that rotted. I've never seen them that bad before.

Yeh, I knew the car sat outside for a couple years before he got it into a garage. Just glad it's only the bar I gotta replace.
