The rubber piece of trim/seal that runs vertically between the sliding window and the static window has shrunk on all 5 of the windows by about 2”.   Have searched for the replacement trim piece online and have not had any luck finding the correct piece.  Wounding if anyone out there has had a similar issue and found replacement.

Have you looked on etrailer.com? They seem to have a wide selection RV window weather strip. I doubt that Rpod windows are anything special or unique.

I did try there as well as the other usual rv parts retailers and Amazon.  It is possible that another part fits in the channel, but I will have to wait a few days to fully remove and take a good look at the channel they press into.  I may try stretching the existing ones out after it rain this weekend.  Just thought someone else has replaced and could let me know where they sourced.

Let us know what you find out. There's a good chance someone else on the forum is having the same issue. Good luck!

I gave up on the search and ended up applying some vinyl conditioner and stretching the trim.  Then applied dicor sealant.  Only time will tell if it holds, but will continue regular application of treatment in the future.
