Whistling Targa Roof!

My 1996 Targa roof whistles when drinving at more than 40mph. I've localised the source to the left side rubber seal between the roof and the wind deflector that pops up before retracting the roof.

I seem to vaguely remember a previous post that someone changed the rubber seals themselves. Can anyone point me in the right direction for fail safe instructions and a source for the rubber seals please?

TIA
 
Mine did this for a while. I did not need to replace the rubbers though. I found that the sealent in the small gap along the front edge of the black metal roof strip had shrunk and so when I renewed this with new sealant the whistling went away. Just thought I would mention it in case you can avoid getting into rubber replacement.
