Default window door seal front side felt?

Hi,

This picture has the wind lace retainer on the left which helps seal the door window on the rear side. The other chrome part has a small slot maybe a bit less than 1/8 inch wide, and something like 1/4 or maybe longer that I think is supposed to have some weather strip felt like material glued into it.

Any ideas of where to get the felt for the one on the right, or what is really was to restore it right?

Thanks

Well now I think the felt goes into a small channel inside the door front window edge, and this part in my picture on the right just goes next to it on the front door window door edge area to look good. Somehow it fits as I took it off, but I have been having a heck of a time as it seems crooked the only way the tube type screws go in.

If anyone with a 29-1930 straight window Cabriolet has a picture of a front door window edge with the window down to show the channel, felt edge, and this adjacent part please post it or link me to one if you get a chance.

Note it is not the same as a 31 slant window door or window molding or channel and as usual the parts are hard to find..

Thanks
