Weather stripping split.

Still sorting out my recent vert purchase. There weather stripping that runs the length of car on both sides on the top frame. Both of mine are split about 3/4 of the way down the top frame. Exact same spot. Almost looks factory but as it is now, there’s about a 1/2 in gap. Great spot for a leak. When the top is down, the strip is bent at a 90 degree angle. Is it supposed to be split? Or do I need to figure out a way glue them back together?

Don’t know if this helps

Helps a bunch. Apparently they are 2 pieces and have shrunk over the years. They are still flexible and stretchy. I’ll have to figure out a way to get them to mate up again. I figure some 3m tape in the channel will work. What book did you get that out of. I got a set of factory service manuals but they do not address much for a very. Is there s factory supplement for verts?
