I'm not aware of a way to put a new seal on the glass, it's molded in somehow. Junkyard will be your best bet for finding a new one.

Once again you are a wealth of knowledge... Thanks. Found a sunroof for $80 in mint condition - I guess that glass is on quite a few different vehicles. Only other question, the sunroof visor/sunscreen fabric is falling off of it, can it be removed without pulling the entire headliner down? Thanks again...

To remove the sunshade, remove the glass and slide the sunshade forward. Release the 2 front clips, slide forward more, and release the 2 other clips.
