Hi all,

Looking to get an idea of where I can can purchase this trim. Looks like the rubber was sun damaged and is cracking and falling out.

Any idea of the part number?

I need the same exact thing. Been looking everywhere and can't find a part#. Its also unclear whether it's included if buying a whole new glass. Anyone else?

It looks like generic seal to me. However I am having no luck tracking it down.

Same here. It probably comes in lengths and has a part number. I have looked that way and can't find it either.
Also have tried non BMW sources to try to match it. - no luck.

I recently ordered a 51-35-7-044-179 WINDOW FRAME for my left side fixed window. It's imprinted "PP-TX20 / TE.S" which appears to be 20% Talc filled polypropylene with TE.S (?) material (perhaps some type of rubber?). The rubber portion is what has cracked off my fixed window, but the majority of the part is the plastic frame to hold and position the glass in the rear door.
Looking at the ISTA removal instructions, there is a very specific process to glue the fixed glass back in place. I'm not sure it's worth the effort and I may just trim off the inside portion of this PP frame with the rubber lip and install just to clean up the visual look of the window.
