vent window seal?

I put new molded one piece vent rubber on my vent glasses earlier this year, they fit really well they did, but I vaguely recall a dried up narrow strip running up between the rear glass edge of the vent glass and the devider strip at some point, I meant to look for them but forgot. It was not part of the "vent rubber" ... but maybe I'm recalling something I added 20 years ago? It was almost like a stiff filler, thin, water resistant.

I'm not sure that it wasn't stuck onto the glass itself. I searched here, saw the extra locks (I even have a pair I tried umteen years ago, they were a short lived thing for me), etc ... but not the strip.

Any body else?

https://shop.broncograveyard.com/ima...rubberpair.jpg That back edge glass seal should be part of the vent window rubber. The back bottom of the vent rubber should seal the divider partially anyway. Don't remember any additional pieces.

Something was there and it fell off, it was really thin, and yes, my rubber seals there to glass, maybe was a thin black trim strip. My old rubber sealed there too, whatever was was thin and hard, not rubber. Maybe was something I stuck on there in a prior time like to eliminate wind noise or something?

More than likely was just a strip of 3M strip caulk. Quick fix for a wind whistle.
