What's everyone using for the black trim around the side covers?

basically there isn't any oem stuff. just monkey it up with hardware store as best you can. the buttons for the port side are easy. right side you need a thin strip glued in.
Good luck

I used a windshield wiper blade, trimmed down to fit.

I cut out a piece of rubber out of an inner tube. Works and looks fine.

This is what I used, it's actually a rubber gasket that is used on aluminium window frames, on the panel with the recess it just pushes in and on the side that usually has the two rubber pads I glued it in position. So, just ask a glazing installer, it cost next to nothing.
