I've been compiling this list for awhile as I have been "refurbishing" my 55. Following are part numbers, prices, sources, and pics for most of the rubber parts on the Pig. Most parts are identical or very close to factory - while a few were chosen for economics. If I left out anything, please add.....

Please chime in and correct me if I am wrong or there is additional insight.
In the course of reading all of this I see only a couple of changes and there are many investigative digressions that never really get answered, were dropped or PM'd but are not here. This is only ment as a summary for the aid of lazy confused guys like me.
For the Window Channel: The material numbers remain constant as above and the consensus is that it seems to work fairly well. Prices change and have probably changed again. The main change here is in the TAILGATE CHANNEL: PVcruisers is no longer in business. However, Slocruisers makes this piece but is out of stock currently ~$249.00 at last production. And Cabe Toyota in CA had some of the remaining stock from PVcruisers.
Good oversight and installation information on this thread are posts #42 and #198-199.
For the Window Felts: Again these are said to remain the same with one exception /one option; and they are said to work well. Costs as with all of them change with time.
It has been suggested (post #34) that tailgate piece zx819752R is a better fit for the outer door felts because of its wiper form and making a better seal.
Some installation instructions are at post #186.
For the Door Weatherstrip (on the door itself): These are again said to work well but are somewhat fatter than stock. Here according to one post there has been a part number change for the passenger side and tailgate side strips.
Passenger side changed from ZX813689B to ZX813689r Tailgate sides went from ZX133178W to ZX813120n
Really the more elegant/better solution for the Tailgate sides and outer "felt" is the factory remake from Slowcrusiers--a one pc part dead on with the OEM
Good oversight and instruction on the Door weatherstrip is at Post # 187 and #190-192.
For the Body Molding: Again the material numbers (JCW) remain the same. :whoops:This seems to be the largest problem area with no absolute best fit. Many posts work at a thickness problem and door closure and seal. There are a couple of recommendations for just using the door molding from SOR that, while more expensive and not perfect, are a better fit with less hassle in installation.
The primary change is that thanks to N2666s SloCruisers is currently working on a remake of the OEM molding that runs the edge laps that catch the tailgate and down horizontialy at the base of the TG aperature.
For the Glass Weatherstrip: Good and Bad here.
Windshield: Available at SOR (120-036-A) or Slocruisers.
Cargo Windows: PVcruisers out of Business. Cabe Toyota of Ca may still have some of his stock. Soon otherwise to be UNOBTAINIUM. However, Some have spliced the windshield W/S to work on Cargo areas (another thread).
1/4 Rear Door windows: Slocruisers is working on the production of these so, they may be revised from unobtainium to
Wahoo.Older model wing window: Has been produced by Slocruisers and may continue to be?
Other items:These, as far as it is known are said to be available and with the same part numbers.
Edit: post 104 states in the 2007 restoration specialties cat. pg 163 part #9416 is the headliner clip. I have not found these in the 2008 catologue.
NEW OTHER ITEMS:
Door handle seals: Available at Slocruisers. They have been available through Arthog here on MUD as well.
Door lock Button grommets: Available at SOR or Toyota part #90480-10102-01.
Door Lock buttons Most any old truck or Sedan of 70's era or Toyota part # 69747-20020-co
Well that is it for the moment or until someone corrects or adds. (or I review)

TIA
after about 2 hours of trying to get the glass in place
..........soo I just ended up cutting 4 small sections from the less deteriorated part about 3 inches long and spaced them out enough to cradle the glass and keep it from rattling but knowing quite well that a small tug will pull the whole thing apart
............this PM off to the wreckers to look at mini truck boosters to see if I can get brakes working..........with clutch and brakes
the blasted inner tube rubber wanted to invert and go into the groove beneath the glass instead of beside it
probably should have taken out the glass and regulator mechanism completely and cut a strip about one inch wider on each side than I needed and after everything was glued in place cut off the excess with an exacto knife...much prefer the original seals as they will keep water out of the holding channel and the lip would have made it so much easier to install....my 0.02;
