    I just searched the posts and could not find a source that sells
    weather stripping. My 1987 740 GLE has the chrome stripping around the
    front and back glass with the black vinyl/rubber stripping that has
    dried and broken off. Can I replace only the black rubber or must I do
    both?

    Either way, where can I find the stuff?

    Thanks,
    jamie

    It's dealer only, and the chrome and rubber are one piece. Brace yourself,
    it's expensive. Here in Ottawa, Canada, I had to buy the strip along the
    bottom of the windshield. I was 125$ lighter when I pulled away from the
    dealer.

    Many thanks. I was thinking about removing the chrome strips, then
    removing the rubber from the chrome strips and then buying new rubber
    and re-glue that to the chrome. I don't need the chrome - only the
    rubber. If it works I'll document it, photo it and share it. :)
