Default Best Sunroof Gasket

Hello, I was wondering if anyone could tell me which is the best new rubber sunroof gasket (to sit in the tray and go against the underside of the glass) available for purchase in the US? And, where can I acquire this gasket? Thank you!
-Paul

I can tell you that I bought an aftermarket one off ebay from one of the major LR vendors, and it was too small. never could get it to stretch and stay in place. Go with original OEM...

Hey XRAD, I had Abran from CARS4X4 replace my sunroof drains with some metal ones a few months ago. I should of had him replace my seals and sunroof gaskets while the head liner was down. Where can I order the OEM ones from? AB?

Or, if not OEM, does anyone know where an aftermarket gasket can be had with great fit and function?

Agree!

the seal that touches the glass can be removed and installed with the sunroof in place..have to open it half way or so...

leaks can com from not just the drains but a few other places in the sunroof gutter-plastic gutter and motor mounts and where the sunroof pan meets the roof/roof fascia. And also the sunroof window seal....

Sorry. Re-read. I used this to seal the sunroof assembly to the roof.
