Any place that installs windshields should be able to get the seal and may be able to point you in the right direction for the trim.

Landwagon please post back if you find a decent price on the trim. I'd like to replace mine.

I would ditch the trim.  If you don't get them centered up right, they will scratch the paint and then rust out the pillar.  I have to go see a body man and get mine fixed before I have to do a cab swap.

on my 85  and my 84 that was stollen, i took out the old crappy metal one that causes rust from the rubbing, i injected epoxy into the rust and seald em off.

then any glass company can use universal rubber trim.  thay make a u shape in 1 piece and a second piece goes across the top.

only costs about 80 bux to do this and it looks better imop
