Default windshield lower seal/gasket

Can anyone tell me how the rubber seal at the bottom of the windshield is replaced. It appears to fit into a small slot on plastic shroud at base of windshield . It appears to seal the entire bottom edge of the windshield. Mine has partially torn away from the plastic base.

It's a trim piece that is attached to the cowl cover.

Give Gene@gmpartshouse.com a call or PM and he can get you what you need.

My windshield was replaced this past Saturday and I know exactly what your talking about. The foam piece is more L shaped and the cleft of the L just sits on the edge of the IP pad. Mine drew my attention because with the windshield out you could see the passenger side is lifting up slightly. Nothing I could do to fix it. Unless it comes out with the IP pad, might be a very tricky install with the windshield in place.
