Default 1934 coupe rear window channel

I have ordered and received and test-installed a new rear window wood kit and the felt track for my 34 3 window Coupe. 'Cut new safety glass. I hadn't really studied this area of the car before taking out the old wood remnants and removing's the drainage pan, prior to the new parts replacement. Now it's clear that this body is missing a vertical metal track which which must extend the full travel of both sides of the the window glass and be necessary to properly secure the fabric, which is being reproduced and commercially sold. I can't see that this retaining component is being reproduced by any company, or individual, so I ask if anyone could supply exact dimensions. It wouldn't be hard to fabricate, it seems. Thx.

Width is wide enough to hold the glass channel. The length is not important approximate is good. The metal channels below are from a 5-W

My three usual parts vendors advise unavailability. Perhaps I have to extend my search!

I have an original 34 3wdw, I have not done it yet , but rear glass needs replacing. (Foggee from age. Plus will not roll up/or down. Problem is the car was upholstered back in the late 60s. So I am concerned about removing the panel below the rear window. The glass is frozen in place the rubber around the outside is so old that it is brittle. If anyone has done this before I would appreciate any advice. Thanks Stan. I purchased my rear window kit from Carpenter in Teneessee!
