Mid cabin windshield rubber trim

[BobCT]

Has anyone replaced this? Mine is looking pretty tired. I have a sample from Taylor but it's fairly expensive for what it is, I think I figured almost $300 to replace all of it. I'll look around some more and see if I can find another source.

My big question, how do you get the corner miter cuts (at the right length) on the first shot? I remember the first time I did crown moulding and there was a pile of lumber next to the saw by the time I was finished. It seems to me you would need some sort of a jig to do it right.

Bob,

if you are referring to the inserts that fit the screw hole covers, I got mine from John Leed at Marinetech.

I got that too

No, I mean the rubber trim that goes around all of the glass. I don't recall seeing a post where anyone has replaced it before but maybe I missed it. Is yours original?

I think Taylor wants $2.00 a foot or something in that range. Seems to me it should be around .40 a foot and then I would willing to figure it out on the fly

mine is not in the best shape.

However, for me, that project would grow into adding

1. the opening window at the base of the center windshield

2. I would take the opportunity to take all the frames and have them powdercoated
