Joe Suchy has it. Comes in a roll and has to be cut to size. I used plywood strips to simulate the glass for gluing. Don't get crazy with the amount of glue.

I used the soft side of industrial velcro and weatherstrip adhesive.. i think kryslerkid here had posted it and it worked great...

Ok, I'm jumping right to the "channel run", prep and material replacement. There were a couple requests on another thread on how it's done.

This is normally how you find the original one, in the bottom of the door. Squeak, squeak!

This side was still intact but badly worn. Scrape it out, sand and clean the inside.

I found this material on EBay for $3.00 per foot. It measures 4" wide and is about 3/32" thick. I noticed that they advertise different thicknesses.

The original one was actually rapped over the edge but that's not going to...

I bought it by the roll with the adhesive on it. Wet the sticky side to get it in the track and then trim it.

I got tired of the window rattling when it was up so I used the Velcro like @icetech did only I just put it in the top of the channel. Not a permanent fix but the rattle is gone.

Not sure where but this looks like it.
