A Pillar Weatherstrip Replacement
Has anybody had to replace the thin piece of rubber that is between the back side of the A-pillar weatherstrip retainer and the window frame? If so, what did you use for replacement?
Thanks in advance for any help!

After taking off the A-Pillar (Header) weatherstrip and removing the track, held in place by screws, which the weatherstrip sits in (glued to) there is a thin peice of rubber or foam-backed rubber underneath it.

Sounds like it's just dried RTV Silicone or rubber strips applied to the back side of the weatherstrip retainer from the factory.
Just scrape it off and re-apply new RTV Silicone to the surfaces.
