Default My First Vette

I bought my very first Vette last week, '08 C6 Coupe. It was $26k, 51k miles, and in near new condition. Since it has a stock audio system, I am going to install an Alpine Nav/GPS. Does anyone have ideas for renewing the side window rubber seals? Mine have cracked due to this hot Arizona weather.
