I lost one side of the rubber strip that helps seal the windshield to the side post. does anyone have an idea of where I can buy replacement striping?

Hi. I lost one too. I took the other one off and still probably have it thrown in the barn somewhere. Not sure if this is would work but I would probably give it a shot if I was looking to replace. 6 ft for 14.95

I don't think that stuff will seal right, it would be better than nothing but the sealing bulb is straight, when the one on the windshield is a side bulb, my phone isn't allowing me to attach the link right now but search side bulb trim in Amazon and eBay it pulls up multiple options. Along with any decent auto parts store can sell it to you by the foot

Awesome and thanks. That's right tmjm. I should have studied and thought before post or looked at old one. Scratch the last post. I bet a side bulb can be found here reasonable. Maybe?

I do. I need 100 feet. Then I could help lots of others out. I lost one, you lost one and I bet others have lost one. You can buy this stuff from 1 ft -250 ft rolls. I can send you the used one I have that's cut to length.
I think the door seal on a late 70's early 80's chevy pick up is the same thing. I lost one also, need to get another one before snow flies.

I lost one too. . . I ended up cutting the one I had in half and putting it on the other side. Will be interesting to see how the aftermarket stuff works.
I have the 2 piece Honda windshield. Its great except that I wish it would open a bit further. The scratch resistance is "ok" but Im currently looking through a scratch that was my fault during removal one day.

honda 2 piece here. I never wipe mine, a hose and a truck washing brush with lots of soapy water, then rinse. Like @trapperm , I too have a scratch that was my fault.

I lost mine off my oem windshield for my Pioneer 500 and this is where I bought a replacement. You can buy it by the foot.

I have bought 3 windshields. 1st one was a Split Honda hardcoat for 700. 2nd was a lower cost one for 500. 3rd was a Split Honda hardcoat for 1000. The Honda Split Hardcoat is pretty good. Nothing beats an Automotive glass style as far as durability though I don't see those offered in split and I like convertible changeable stuff. There is one that keeps catching my eye I would like to try and that's a Superatv flip style. Best wishes and there's good one's out there.
I replaced rubber strips on windshield. Bulb is slightly smaller dimension than stock but price was good. You can replace both sides and have a spare for less than 10 dollars.

This is an exact fit. I ordered 5 feet and cut it to the length I needed. In total I spent about $13 with shipping. The channel needs to be opened slightly to slide on to the windshield and I added a bead of black silicone inside the channel to add to the grip.
Thanks jawquin for the tip. It worked great
I know this thread is old, but post a question. I keep losing my side seals. It's a running joke with my friend because I call them on the radio to stop because I keep losing my rubbers. I have the hard coat Honda OEM split windshield. I usual lose the small lower windshield seals, but ironically, I've found them every time. The tree branches love to scrape them off. Last weekend the snow was wet and heavy so the branches were horrible. I lost the lower on the way in, but found it on the way out. But, at some point on the trip, I lost an upper. How the heck does that even happen, and without noticing it.
Anyway, my question is, do I even need to have the side seals on if I don't have a fully enclosed cab? It does appear that the sides of the windshield come in contact with the ROPS, so I'm assuming they are only there for air intrusion if you have a fully enclosed cab????

I lost mine pretty early in and never replaced them.
Didn't care because if I wanted to sit in a sealed cab either my truck or my jeep would be chosen not a SxS.

I don't think it is to keep it sealed it's to keep the plastic from banging together when it vibrates.
