That flocked strip attaches to the window and rides the channel with the window. What you have there is a fixed weatherstrip.
 
Look in RA in the universal/body section they have quite a few you just need to know the profile. Cheap also!
 
I’m not sure. The Mopar glides have those guides that lock the glass into the channel top and bottom so it can’t sag up or down at the rear. Without being locked into position up front, the glass might get cocked in the front and rear guides and hang up.
 
My understanding was the guides do just that, guide, seen mention of some that had no strips but still worked just a little loose in the channel
@69L48Z27 yes I understand that, looking for other options as not being in the US and last set that was got just crumbled and broke when inserting into the channel so a waste of money
 
I just installed a set from Detroit Muscle. Kind of a pain as they have to be trimmed and holes cut/punched for the guides but once in place they are working well. Have to use the plastic guides that come with them as the original guides are a little too thick to work with the plastic slides which are apparently a little thicker than the original material.
