Default Weather stripping source

Does anybody have a source for this weather stripping used around the door windows, at least on the m656/xm757 series vehicles?

The width of the base portion is 3/4 inch. It may be classified as a "P" profile extrusion.

Thanks.

It kinda looks like the same stuff as the deuce, but you have a screw hole. I have a good used strip I could send you to see if it will work.

Thanks, for the offer, it is indeed the same material (except for the clearance holes for the screws) and the general dimensions of the deuce and xm757 door windows are the same if not exactely the same, but I will need about 8 ft of the stuff. I'm checking the other suggestions.....

Default Check here

Lots of rubber stripping. It takes time to go through the catalog but many sizes here.
