Default Vert top rubber seal

The rubber seal on the top above the window part number HJG7779AA has ripped and I want to replace it, problem is I can't find it for less than $240. That's a lot of smack for a Piece of rubber.

Any body got any sources to find one cheaper?

Wreaking yard.

I took mine off and carefully using wax paper and toothpicks glued it back in place with superglue. Superglue is very effective with this type of rubber creating a permanent repair.

Even after gluing, the rubber is so fragile now that mine have torn again.
