Default Window seal issue

I need to know about this black strip, what's it called, where is the best place to get new ones, how hard is it to change, etc.
Thanks, Jody

It requires the removal of the inside door panel.

Why are you looking to change it?

The weather has gotten the best of them, I figure if they are not that expensive or hard to change than why not. The problem is that I can't seem to find them at any of the vendor sites I have visited thus far, I figure it must be because I don't know what they are called.

You didn't say what year you have, so from your sig pic I'm assuming you have a Hardtop.

Those are the GM part numbers. The items you are looking for are dealer items only. You can't find at your local auto parts store(s). Call Bob or Tom at Fichtner Chevrolet (forum vendor) @ 1-800-234-5284. You'll like forum prices vs. your local bendovership, plus no sales tax as long as you don't live in Montana.
HTH,
Robert
