home depot has a 1/4-5/16" half moon shaped closed cell foam gasket that
could be used to keep moisture out of the window channel. the flat surface
is self adhesive so it's fairley easy to install. used it on my kit car to
seal the plexiglass headlight covers. had to order it on line and if your
interested think i have the part number some place-mike mann
