Those seals around the corner windows look to be in great shape. Where did you get those?
There have been several threads started regarding the window seals/gaskets and where to acquire new ones. Not much has come from those threads. Search!
If you search the FJ43 maybe you can get some ideas. My 43 uses Troopy window seals on the side sliders. There is a thread from (?) that shows his beautifully restored 43 without rubber seals on the sliding windows. I also know you can, or some one can make the corner windows from plexiglass. There are several companies that make window seals/gaskets and if you look through their catalogs you may find something that will work for you.

I have an extra set of the rear corner glass.

Is the glass from a Toyota 40 top or an MPR?

Possibly MPR? I'm relatively new to this platform. All I know is this vehicle was imported from Columbia and MPR went out of business ages ago?
Can you give me the measurements?

I'm not sure where the previous owner got the seals from

If that is truly MPR corner glass I am interested!
I’ll send some measurements later .

I didn't realize it was an MPR top. I've got the OEM Toyota curved glass im pretty sure. They came with my OEM top as an extra set from the PO, so there is a chance they aren't Toyota since I've never measured them, but I'm guessing that's exactly what they are.
Sorry

The MPR glass is a little larger than OEM glass

Found this for the outside track: https://www.vintagetrailersupply.com/fuzzy-glass-channel-for-airstream-classic-revcon-mhs-vts-278/
But still need to find something big for the inside track... 3/4"
Also wonder if this would work. Seems the same as what pulled off of the frame.

I like the Fuzzy seal. Although it is more for the window channels.
Not sure if the T would work?
