Need help finding a supplier of rubber weatherstriping.

For which part?

Most of the weather striping is the same as a regular Celica.
See Rick at http://toyheadauto.com/

For the convertible hood you may need to see a convertible specialist like AMC or a rubber specialist.

I assume you have a Griffith Sunchaser.

dixieduo - You have a '78 convertible? I have never seen a '78 convertible. I have only seen the custom convertible starting in 1980. Please let us know what company converted your car. Please submit a few photos too...that might help us. There were several companies pumping out convertibles from '80-84.

I've gotten all my weather strips from ebay at not a bad price. The best thing is that its OEM. For me thats a no brainer...fits like a glove!! And for me 1st gen parts are a REAL hassle!
