1st main job in my restoration is fixing the windshield, so it has to come out and rust cut and replaced.

im trying to get replacement weather strip in case the original cant be reused. Parts catalog for my van states i need similar to below i.e. left and right section with a capping joint in between

but my current seal dosent look like this, more like onec strip that's been heat bonded.

anyone any ideas what i should be after?

I believe the top diagram is for a 1995 and newer up till the body change.

The lower picture looks like our original one which was from 1978. When we repainted our van a few years back, we went with the newer 1995 version which works on the older vans.

It may be that is all they are offering now.

I had both of my 92 & 93 done they each have a different type of seal...the glass shop tried to do the 1st one found out it wasnt it ordered the other style it went in fine....picked up a rock in the desert.....called the glass shop this time he came out with the other from the 1st install and he ordered another 2nd style.....20 min later I heard a OH CRAP....the 93 used the one he got for the other van and the one he ordered he didnt have to.....soooo I know he has a seal for the 92 in stock.....but they both have a split at the bottom center.....the one in the pic is a factory seal done in house.....

although the top image isnt from my parts book its exactly the same as my parts book, which is a 93-94 book.

so is the general consensus that what i currently have is how it was fitted when built but the top image will now replace this ?

The drawing you have from the parts book showing the 2 piece thing, I believe is the optional chrome trim.
