Does anyone have the original part # for some weatherstriping window chanel for a Superbird door glass.  This is the window channel that goes on the two holes vertically on the drivers door and passingers door glass. I have heard that you can still order this from a dealer but the two dealers I went to could not find the part # for it.  Thanks.

I was recently told that the only reason it is still available is because the same piece was used on Shadow convertibles. 

The availability is spotty, and they are pricey.

The replacements are similar but have to be altered to work. And, that isn't easy to do. Last I heard, they were on national backorder. I expect someone to step up and reproduce them. Hopefully soon. They are also used on the pop out glass on post cars.
The B5 superbird that we painted last year needed them badly but I never could find any available.

Some photos for reference. The last photo shows the repro on the left and a real Mopar one on the right. The repro is too deep and as a result, the window is VERY hard to crank up and down.

Thanks everyone for the info.  I had trouble finding original and aftermarket ones.  I heard a few horror stories about the aftermarket ones and then I was able to find a pair of Mopar ones.  $150.00 dollars for the stupid things which is ridiculous.  The Mopar dealer told me years ago these were $7.00 a piece.  Anyway, I hope the ones I ordered works OK. Thanks,  Jeff

..where did you get them in the end , I need some also.......

I ordered them from Dante's Mopar parts.  I have not put them on yet so I can't tell you if these are correct or not yet but they are Mopar ones.  They look pretty good so far though.  Year one says they should get theirs about 3rd week in September, but they were $70.00 a piece at the time.  I'll let you know in a few weeks if they were correct or not.
