All, I have searched and researched and gone to photo site but can not find a source for the rubber gasket material (the one that shrinks over time) that seals the glass to the frame on the coach windows. Jim K's site didn't show it but it would seam to be a much needed resource. Any help?

Jim K has it as well I think, I was down at Applied some months back and one suggestion Jim had, was to refit the existing rubber and add a small piece to fill the gap caused by the shrink rather than replacing the whole trim piece.

Also, I've heard soaking existing seals in linseed oil restores the flexibility and shine, but no personal experience doing this just yet. Someone else able to chime in on this?

Billy,
There is no way we can post all the parts we carry.
You can get that material at a auto glass shop.
Next time call me and ask.

Thanks Jim, it is so much easier at work to web surf and message post and email but I should remember the good old fashioned phone method as well.
Thanks again,
