Is your trim missing? You can find the parts, just look for them. Multiple suppliers of old and new too many to list. If obsolete have someone make the channels, like a machinist that does welding. The chrome plating business usually will know the guys in the auto resto business because they take them parts for plating.
Otherwise, take your old ones and get them stripped, repolished and plated. Recommend triple plated: copper, nickel and chrome. otherwise, it's just nickel and chrome. You need the channel material that is the gasket between the glass and trim. At this time you might inspect the window operation, replace the bump stop and repair as needed.
Also, the car shows/Autoparts swap meet are a good place to mingle and talk to owners about vehicles. In California we have two, one in Pomona and other in Long Beach(Wrong Beach), that occurs every month.
