Do a search on "windshield rubber". You'll find a number of very recent posts on the subject with manufacturers and retail outlets listed.

If you go to
AutoAtlant.com, here's the link to their part. It's $39.50 for the glued on one...

Do you want the one that goes around the windshield and replaces the brite-work or the seal that goes on the bottom of the winshield opening that bridges the gap between the windshield frame and dash pad?
OR
Do you want the one that mounts the glass in the windshield frame and replaces the brite-work and butyl rubber glue?
Hey .... I'm confused

this last choice seems the most straight forward and where i would like to go provided the performance and looks hold up. would you have a specific recommendation?
ps. appreciate the other responses as well. i need to refine my search skills.

I can't find the thread about the rubber moulding that actually holds the glass in. There was a discussion a long time ago
Here's the thread on the rubber to replace the brite work. I bought a roll of it myself. It still requires the butyl tape (or whatever) to secure the windshield to the frame. Wasn't all that easy but wasn't all that bad .... just time consuming and required a fret to be painted around the interior of the glass.
