custom window trim?

well, i guess it's not really a 'custom' window because it was obviously made in a factory somewhere, but do any of you have advice/ resource suggestions for trim/ waterproofing/ etc?

(like the rubber stuff around a stationary car window)

the 'rich's list' on here has a link but it seems to be broken, and i found some results for 'glazing vinyl' on amazon but i'm not sure if that's what i need.

thanks in advance!

Austin Hardware sells the rubber gasket material. It is available to fit different wall thicknesses.

...you can probably find it locally at a window and glass supplier as well as various car/truck custom shops and possibly auto paint/body suppliers................
