Default 'A' Pillar Weather Stripping Replacement

My weather stripping on the 'A' pillars (supports that runs from the roof down to front of door frames) needs replacing. This is the soft rubber stripping, not the hard plastic that outlines the windshield. I can't seem to identify this specific part, even in Eckler's C4 catalog that I just received. Don't want to buy the entire weather stripping kit. Any Help?

Thanks, I saw that part labeled as "Roof Front/ Pillars" and thought it may refer to the hard plastic "sleeve" around part of the windshield. Looks like it is a one piece stripping that runs up both front 'A' Pillars and across the top of windshield/roof. If it's the rubber weather stripping, I guess that's it.

It’s all one piece from driver side to passenger side. I would also suggest looking at Wilcox and buying when they have a discount.

Corvette Central Weatherstrip
This is what I had installed when I replaced the windshield in my 85 Z51. Been a couple of months and no problems. Looked really wrinkled before installing but great afterwards. HTH.
