    I cant find a re-production quarter window rubber molding. Has anyone used something else or used a generic type of rubber? Any suggestions I hate to have everything else perfect with crummy old window rubber

    Honda accord (90s') door jamb/roof rail weather strip is a very good match for the quarter windows.
    Pull both front door opening pieces and you will have enough for 3 quarter windows.
