When I investigated, the black rubbery weather stripping (sorry if not technically correct) looks like it is well-placed on the side that does not leak, but worn and not filling the gap on the side that leaks. Two questions: (1) does anyone know if a replacement is available (and what to search for), and (2) is it as easy as carefully pressing it into the gap along the windshield perimeter?

Thanks a ton! Getting my wife's "baby" back in shape...slowly!

Thanks so much!

 

The black plastic molding (2 &3) is ornamental it can only be installed when the glass is replaced The windshield is sealed with RTV. There is no weather strip.
A new windshield is installed by applying RTV around the opening then pressing the glass in. I have had the glass replaced several times, many times the plastic bits get "lost".

 

#1 is the Windshield. And what donbrew said, #3 is plastic and does not seal anything. The Windshield typically does not survive the removal process, so count on buying a new Windshield.

But are you sure it's the Windshield leaking? Other potential leaks are the antenna, and (since yours is 2006) the butyl patch under the cowl.
