I just got a set of two of these at the local VW dealer. $7 each.
But I did get the late-model black ones rather than the chrome ones.

A tip when installing them. Spray the inside of the molding and the metal gutter
with silicone spray, and if you use a rubber mallet to help the strip on be
careful at the bend - the strips break easily.  As I found out.
