    Hi,
    My picture shows faded "roof sealer strips" (?) (highlighted in blue) which I would like to replace with some plain black unpainted strips that match the door and windshield molding. My problem is I don't know the exact part name used in a parts catalog to order them. It could be "roof panel sealer," "roof side molding," "roof weatherstripping," etc., etc. I tried searching through some online catalogs, but I just can't seem to nail it down. Can anyone help me out? (Part numbers would be good too, come to think of it. )
    Thanks. I appreciate it very much.

    roof rails are on the anniversary, Le, and daytona edition gp's. The ones you and I have are called something else, if i remember correctly looking in the catalog.

    OK, I think I've got it now. I went through some more online GM catalogs, and they all seem to be saying it is called "roof reveal molding." (Under the ROOF section of the catalog, Exterior Trim) At the present time, gmpartsdirect.com has the lowest price of $48.68. I'm not sure if I'm going to pay that much for them though. I may just pull them out and paint them black myself. Thanks for the help.
