Does anyone know the McMaster part number, or other supplier, for the rubber molding/tubing that goes into the upper windshield frame rail? Or type/dimensions/info on what will fit? Thanks.

Are you talking about the channel along the top of the windshield? Where a top is normally hooked? Like the pic below? If not using a top, it can be filled with a regular piece of vacuum hose from your local part store. Sorry I don't have the size in front of me. But it's nothing exotic. The right size is a pretty tight fit. I use a little liquid soap.

Thanks Paul. Yup, that's the one. I have some marine speedometer-pickup tubing that is 1/4" that seems just about perfect. I just don't quite have enough of it. Just my luck...
