Anyone got new window seals before?
Well i noticed that my seals all around the car are getting flakey and stretched, I think its from the time i got my car painted they had to lift up all the seals. So my question is has anyone replaced their seals on the windshield and other etc.?

i'm wondering about the price for the rubber ones that wrap around the front/rear windows... mine just look really crappy and i'm trying to get the car in as good of shape as possible.

I just changed mine because the glass had to be taken out while I resprayed my car.
The guys used Ford(Uk) Transit gasket. He said its quite a simple gasket and you should be able to find something which will do the job.
Just ask a windscreen shop what they can do

If your talking about the gasket that just goes around the windshield and rear hatch IIRC they are about $70 ea from Mazda.
Aftermarket universal fit stuff should be very cheap and serve the same function, it won't look nearly as nice IMHO. I bought new stuff from Mazda when I had the windows put in my CYM.

The one that I gagged on was the plastic cowling trim piece that is at the bottom of the windshield. That thing was about $230 but I had to have it

Anyone know about the piece that goes above the window? It's hard plastic. It's on the car itself, not the door. Price from Ray? Got one you don't need? Mine's just flopping around, broke somehow.

Just go to safelite or somewhere that does windshields. I got them to put brand new stripping on the front and back when they did my windshield. It cost about 80$ for each end.
Edit: Make sure it is a reputable place that does it well, I had some rust on the A pillar due to a poor glue job previously. If the glue is not done right then water can get trapped in there when it is supposed to run down and out the channel.
