Two Piece Windshield Seal/Gasket

Where can I find a two piece (left side-right side)windshield rubber gasket? Everyone seems to sell the one piece these days. Does anyone know if those original GM style seals are still available? The glass guy I found is telling me that it will make for a cleaner/easier install.

I have been buying my WS rubber from Steele Rubber and I like the way they fit the corners

I should have mentioned I have a 4" chop. This pic shows one half of the original 2 piece seal on the old glass. That's the seal I'm looking for.

I bought some "super glue" at the L A Roadster show that the guy was making "O" rings with and he stretched them very tight and they did not brake.
Have you tried to "splice" the cut ends back together on a stock gasket to fit your W S

I haven't done anything with it yet. I've never attempted to install a windshield before. I'm hoping to find the right rubber seal so I can deduct the seal thickness from the actual window opening.
