Default T-top

I am restoring a T-top 69 and noticed the weatherstrip on the front trim is not good. Can anyone tell me if this rubber part can be purchased without the trim?
Thanks Chuck

Hi Chuck,
I see the ss trim strip being listed, but not the rubber strip by itself?
Maybe Willcox?
Regards,
Alan

No, you have to buy the SS trim because the rubber seal is crimped into the metal. Lou.

It would be a very hard job to separate the molding, remove the rubber and then install new... Way more time than money...

I got my T-top rubber (w/o chrome) from Bair's, a few years ago. They had a roll in stock back then. I don't know if they now have what you need.

Good luck.
