The two rubber pieces in the very middle of the t top housing (both front and rear).
Front Seal: 10248550
Rear Seal: 10248551
Called a guy I know who is the parts manager at a dealership and he said they were discontinued.
Any advice as to who may have some left or other things I could do to maintain the factory look?

Well unlike some ******** on this site..... this is what i did. I called all the local dealers in my area and managed to get 1 set. They cost me $7.49 for the set. Somebody told me there was a dealer in tenn. that had a couple left. Don't know where as I did not need to follow up on this.

Well thanks to those who have contributed useful info in this thread. This is the first sign of things to come for our cars as they get older. I scoured EBAY and googled the part numbers a million different ways and still nothing.
Hopefully year 1, summit, or 1Le designs can come up with products to keep our cars looking sharp as more things become discontinued from GM.
It sucks even more that this is my daily driver. More wear,tear,and fading on my car. Lol...time to get a beater in the near future.

I have a complete T-bar with the seals on it I'd sell ya.
PM if seriously interested.
I'ts been repainted to a nice glossy finish, but you'll have to re-apply the double-sided tape or use a gasket seal on the underside when you re-install it.
FYI, the photos shows the tape still on the seals from when I polished it.

I had my local dealer do a search about two weeks ago. The closest dealer to Chicago that had them was somewhere in Indiana, I think the town was Lowell. Not too far, but I haven't bothered to make the trip yet.
