Hatch glass rubber molding?
Looking for new hatch glass rubber molding. The one that holds the glass in place. Does any place still carry them? For a s130.

I think I remember previous posts about this. If somebody else remembers them better, they can link you. Try calling them 'gaskets' instead of moldings when you search, just for a start. Lots of mfrs on line who will be happy to sell you the material if you can send them the original profile.
Also, if you go to a real pro auto glass replacement shop, they will have experience and good ideas about how to improvise a gasket if the original part isn't available... which it probably isn't.. Try a local windshield replacement shop without a national name, if you can find such a place. Don't worry. It can be done.

If you can possibly photo the profile of the original gasket (at its end) and include dimensions, the net has lots of gasket makers/distributors who will sell to you by the foot. There should be a way of replacing your hatch gasket without paying weird prices. (I'm optimistic and cheap!) If you Google 'hatchback glass gasket' you will see what I mean.
