Window Rubber Advice Please

Window Rubber Advice Please
Hi,
My little rubber strip along the bottom of the window that seals the door/glass as the window goes up and down has perished. It gets drawn down with the window and doesn't seal.
It's a pain to differentiate when googling it from talk of the other bits of window rubber, if I'm reading a Honda diagram correctly it's HONDA OEM 72375S2A003 Door-Weatherstrip.
Honda want 20 quid (which seems fair) but described fitting as a "workshop job" and there's a few weeks wait for the part (all assuming we're talking about the same part).
Have I got the part number right and has anyone fitted one of these? I daily ran an Esprit SE for years so it's fair to say I know my way around pliers, sellotape and blutac.

I have all of my window trims removed at the moment , there is nothing specifically difficult about removing them other than having to grit ones teeth to pull the outside trim of and hope the clips dont snap. All mine were ok

What Chippo said! Removing a window trim is by no means a workshop job, they're just after your cash!
Just need to be prepared to replace the odd clip that may break when removing the weather strip, some will come off easier if you pull them off at an angle, like pulling on one side until it pops off, maybe these are different though, never had mine off!

You can see the clips on the top of the door in this picture (with a couple missing)
