Default Targa Top Rear Seal - Del Sol

Ive done a search and came up with nothing, Does anyone know where i can get a new targa top seal (rear) without going to the dealer and spending over $300 on one? or better yet how to repair it. It seems like theres a small tear in it, ive tried using silicon sealer and am having no luck, everytime it rains i get a flooded rear compartment where it drips down.
