2001 Suburban Weatherstripping

I'd like to replace the weatherstripping for the trunk area. I have cargo doors and for the life of me can't find what I'm looking for. Ideas? Obviously if I knew the part number I'd probably be able to cross-reference it. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Found if for the liftgate right away. It's possible it's the same weatherstripping regardless of door style. Do you know someone with a liftgate to compare to yours?

I'd have to call Chevy. I don't see a weather strip on there for the barn doors and regular passenger doors have the weather stripping attached to the truck itself. The barn door profile looks like a rear hatch cut in half (see swoop around 3rd brake light). Too expensive to just "try it", though, at $100 for a piece of rubber and some glue.

Here's a pic I found online. Not the best resolution, but looks the same to me. Best bet is still for the OP to compare his to one with a liftgate irl.

Welp, this was the OP's first post and he hasn't been back since...:rolleyes:

Well, if the OP does return, here is the weatherstripping. Sadly, both PN's have been discontinued by GM, but there is one of them available on eBay:

Using that part number, GM Parts Direct has if for 133 bucks and 26 shipping.

Thanks for all the feedback folks...I'm here, just a busy week. I can tell you mine has a cut in the center, at the bottom and it appears to be intentional rather than all one big piece. In other words, it isn't from a rip or tear. You can tell there is like a rubber tube inside of the stripping to align the two cut ends, like it was intended to 'plug' the two sides together. I'll see if I can get a picture up here. Having a fit piece would be nice but I just want to make sure the places selling it that way have the groove so it stays on with a touch of glue and I can cut to fit. Oddly, that is a way cheaper option than the eBay sale...sheesh $200+. I can also follow the part number lead further so thanks for providing that. Jacob, your picture looks like it was taken of mine! ;)
