How to replace this weather stripping?
Hi and happy new year.
I have a 1995, 4 cylinder S-10. Among its many issues is that the weather stripping (shown here) attached to the pillar behind the door is splitting from the bottom up. I think it may be possible to get a replacement (may be #4 shown here). But I have no idea how to actually remove and replace this. I see what seem to be rivets that attach this piece to the door pillar. But I am not sure if that is the case and, if so, how to deal with them. I am not seeing any rivet part listed so what to use, if I can even get this off, is unclear.
Thanks for any advice, tips, or suggestions.

Unable to get it off, Its part of the window assembly as explained above.
I used clear RTV silicone, its what I had... and seems to hold everything together. i did a skim coat on front and filled the channel in the back....
try with a black RTV and see, but everything else i have tried failed within a week...
Weatherstripping adhesive...
Super Gule...
Shoe Goo...
RTV is the only one still working 5 months later...
Hope this helps
