Seal (frame) surrounding the rear window of a 1998 Volvo C70 Coupe

Hello everyone,

I recently acquired a 1998 Volvo C70 Coupé and I'm really happy with it.

However, I've noticed that the frame (seal) around the rear window is badly damaged. I'm looking to replace it, but part number 8618513 is no longer available to order in my country (Belgium).

Do you have any suggestions on where I might find this part or how to get a similar one?

Thank you all in advance for your help.

I've had a look but cannot find the part anywhere and GCP.SE list the part number as expired. All I can suggest if it is a rubber part, or even a plastic one, sometimes windshield repair companies may be able to get aftermarket parts. My buddy just bought a good quality aftermarket windshield for his 06 V70 and it came with the upper seal included.

Thank you so much for your research and your reply. I'll try that approach, as the part is really hard to find.
Thanks again.
