Will check once i'm off work, 45 mins.
Says it fits Blazer/Tahoe 92-99 so wouldn't think model year matters.

That's the weather strip in the upper corner. Do you have a gap in that corner where the upper gasket meets the gasket going down the side? Or is it just metal exposed?20200430_185956.jpg 20200430_190032.jpg
Could just be flattened from age too, allowing water to get through.

I have the flat piece that runs east west and then the surround a little lower. There is a flat metal edge about 1/2" long on either side of the east west piece. I wonder if cleaning the gasket and all the stuff we've done has left a gap that wasn't previously smooshed and now I got intrusion?

Gaskets loose their flexibility over time--they just go flat, letting air and water get through. Maybe you can put some thing under it to bring it up some--other just replace it and be done with it--looks cheap enough.

Might just replace. Just need to figure out which pieces I need.

Can you take a pic of the upper passenger side? Hate to be a pain but I want to figure out if I need that one corner piece, LMC shows one needed on the right side, against the body to the right of the long east west piece
Will do in the daylight
