Good luck . Been discontinued for years .

Saw one NOS seal on Ebay for half what your car is worth.

But I imagine other GM rides had same size or close. I read post once about it but can not find it . Good luck on search do not give up . Alot of NOS parts showing up right now.

Finding it, buying it, thats the easy part....figuring out how to install it is a different matter. When I had my headliner replaced, I bought a seal for them to install while they had the headliner out. they wouldnt touch it...said it was too much work...of course they werent exactly a high quality shop either, so it might have been too big a job for them to tackle.
When I bought it, it was around 95.00 in 2002.

you can still buy them from the dealer last i knew. I've replaced mine in my 78 twice now. Its pretty easy to replace, the hardest part is that you have to remove the entire sunroof assembly from the car.

No we had bought up the last of them & sold out 6 months ago. We are getting them remanufactured & should be back to the prices they were in 2002 or cheaper.
