Windshield trim to cover screws????

[rickr]

When removing the windshield for my restoration I removed some black trim tape that covered up the screws that hold the windshield to the deck. The tape did not look OE. It looked like originally there was some kind of insert, mabe flexible plastic that fit into the slot. It would have to be thin (about 1/16" and flexible)

Has anyone replaced this? I plan on contacting Supra but would be suprised if it was still available.

Any ideas?????
THANKS!

Requires 4x @ $5. Trim to fit (leave an extra 3/8")

I was getting ready to fabricate them myself but this is much easier ;)

Wow good replies here everyone. I will have to look at my winshield again I think it has a couple loose screws that won't tighten. Might need some replacement vinyl trim mentioned above too.
