Window weather strip help

OK, guess I would call it a senior moment except I'm not that old yet.

Trying to find replacements for the door glass rubber/felt stuff that the window slides up & down through. Not the channel but the horizontal section where you rest your arm at.

I can't for the life of me think of the proper term and thus it ain't showing up on the JC WHitney search.

Somebody save me

(Original title read "weather strip search" but that didn't sound right...)

It's called belt weatherstripping.

Thanks guys. No wonder I couldn't find it. Beltline moulding or weatherstriping, never called it that! Pricey stuff though, wasn't expecting that much $. Anybody know if its the same for a '70s door or not?

These pieces are for made for each specific application so the length is correct and the clips on the back side are where they need to be.
Does anyone make the vent window seal for our trucks? I see them for up to '86.

Last year when my truck was in the body shop again, I replaced the entire window channel and the both inner and outer wiper moldings.

On the window, the Left Inner is the same as the Right Outer so you will need 2 of each to do both doors.

As of last year I bought it all from the dealer, it was a bit expensive but it is an exact fit unlike some of the aftermarket ones.

I got some from an ebay vendor called the weatherstrip store (I think). Good quality, and it fit well. I think they had the wing vent stuff available.
