Default 76 Windshield Glass Support

Hi all, anyone know where to find the windshield glass supports for a 76 like shown in the attached picture? I've tried a couple of places but no luck. Thanks.

That looks more like a trim mounting tab than a glass support. And glass is one thing you really want to pay someone else to do.

Maybe you can call it trim support. The car does not have any trim where this mounts to. This thing mounts right under the windshield on both sides of the car. The small piece of rubber you see on the top left of it sits right under the windshield.

Ok, I see now; This looks like it except mine is old and raggard and not complete I suppose

This is the set I bought and installed on my 77 this last summer.

They are a bit rigid. Let them sit in the sun or hot water to soften, it will make the tip easier to slip under molding. Use a little RTV on the 2 screws when installing.
Here is a snip of how the tip fits under the molding, it does not fit under glass as shown in picture.
