Tailgate Window Channels for 1989 Suburban

[brown7373]

The tailgate window channels (vertical) on my 89 Suburban are rusted out and I haven't found anyone who sells replacements. LMC sells the right side only, but not the left. Blazer channels don't fit.

Anyone know of a source for these parts?

I need the left and right of this metal channel with felt inside.

I was able to purchase new ones from my local Chevy dealer. The Service Manual says to insert them through the glass opening from the top, but there is no way they fit. I disconnected the window at the bottom and pulled it all the way out, resting it on a saw horse and inserted them through the hole in the inner facing panel of the tail gate and installed them that way. Problem solved.
