Default Are there good aftermarket weatherstrips for targa roof sides

I think I will need to replace "Upper weather strip" which seals the sides of the targa roof against the window glass, GM p/n 10313371 and 10313370. Unlike the halo, the GM parts are still available, albeit expensive. Has anybody on the forum had any luck with aftermarket replacements? I see Fairchild KG4080 and Metro RR2009A. The latter seems to be made from EPDM, which in theory should be more durable. Metro also claims that theirs is better than OEM, but I have my doubts. I would love to hear feedback from forum members who actually tried these. GM version is 7x the price and it has already failed on mine, so I am willing to explore alternatives.
