Default Window rubber bits

So, I've decided that I must be mentally retarded.

Looking through various catalogues and "how-to" articles, I have determined that I don't know WTH to call the rubber bits that swipe the rain off the window as you roll it down, and keep it weather tight.

I need the rubber bits for all four of my windows that roll up and down and have no desire to spend $300 on an omnibus kit. The rest of my rubber and felt bits are just fine.

This is frustrating. So what do you call the rubber piece on the outside of the window where it slides against the door panel? And is there a preferable source for them?

Yeah, I looked there. Trouble is, they have descriptions like "Inside armpit lefthand weatherstripping." And a picture of something that resembles a black line. WTF is that supposed to show you? I see myself ordering every single one they have, one thing at a time, in order to get what I need. My felts are good. I figured that one out, easy.

If they were truly interested in helping the customer, they'd have an exploded diagram, showing where the pieces fit.

I write stuff like this for a living and am amazed at how user unfriendly the descriptions and alleged "pictures" of the product are.

It's called "beltline weatherstrip" And they even have a video on how to do it.
