Looking for Driver's side window weatherstripping..

[Sparky9292]

Hi,

My weatherstripping is rotting (thanks to the AZ sun) on my driver's side window.

It's the piece of rubber that your elbow would rest on if you had the window down.

I can't find it on PC.com's site.

I'm also looking for a dash mat as well. If someone could give me a recommendation on where to buy these, I would appreciate it.

Thanks!

MSRP for the door weatherstrip is $25. Part number 68172-47030.

Awesome Patrick!

Really dumb question, there are two parts that point to the same item..

WEATHERSTRIP, FRONT DOOR GLASS, INNER RH (68171-47030)

WEATHERSTRIP, FRONT DOOR GLASS, INNER LH (This is the one you picked, part 68172-47030)

What does RH and LH mean?

The part that I want to replace is the rubber piece on the outside of the car, not inside.

Hey Sparky,
Where did you end up finding the bolt weatherstripping? I'm in AZ too and mine dissolved in under 3 years. Toyota will meet me half way on price and install, but I'd like to see if there's an aftermarket part somewhere.
thx

Note that the above part number is the inside strip. For the strip on the outside of the door, it's

MOULDING ASSY, FRONT DOOR BELT, RH 75710‑47010
MOULDING ASSY, FRONT DOOR BELT, LH 75720‑47010

I got mine from Toyota OEM Parts | Genuine Accessories & Toyota Original Factory Body Parts City Toyota -- for a body part like this, you aren't going to find an aftermarket replacement. Total price with shipping was about $50.

As it turns out, there's a way to replace it without removing the inner door panel. Toyota's service manual does it this way because that's the only way to remove it without damaging it. It's hooked over a lip in the sheet metal on the inner side, so you need to get a tool under that lip to unhook it.

However... it's already damaged, so who cares? It's just rubber, so starting at one end tear the outside part off. Once you do that, you can push down the inner part and get it over the hook. Be careful not to drop it inside the door.

You will still need to remove the mirror as it overlaps it. The inner cover (or speaker) just pops off. Remove the three nuts holding the mirror in place. If the metal clip from the inner panel comes off the inner panel, you can get it from the outside once the mirror is off. Likewise for the white push-in clip.
