Most likely , it is not the gasket ,,, you most likely have rust ...

The glass is easy to remove ...

You have the stainless trim I take it. You need this one: CAB73-B

CAB77-B is for the plastic chrome trim.

I have the trim around my windshield and I got the seal from Dennis-Carpenter. I had a new windshield and seal installed at the same time. Old seal leaked in the corners. Took it to be professionally installed and they found no rust, new seal still leaks in the corners so I got to take it back and they are going to inject sealer.

Had the seal in the back glass replaced also and so far it hasn't leaked.
