get off a scrapped one, i had 1 upto a couple of monts ago and gaskets were fine on it, taking from another car will give u an insight on how to put them back on too. once u got em put em in a clean bucket an pour some light oil on em , vegi oil is good ,this will make nice and supple if u leave it on 4 a few days. use a spray bottle wid watered down washing up liquid and spray on liberally on the non opening bits of glass which are on the back doors if its a 5 door  :smiley:

seals around opening windows  ,just wind em down , fixed bits of glass will have to come out as the gasket holds em in place and are much more difficult to do, i av done em b4 but used to be a window fitter , so was used to that type of thing, good luck :smiley:
