windshield seal help dont want chrome trim what should i do?

hello mopar fans,

I have a 1973 Plymouth scamp, I am replacing the front and back windshield seals and I do not want to put the chrome trim back on around the seals, so I know I can put the seals on without the chrome trim but there will be a gap showing I need ideas of how I can fill or cover the gap so it does not collect water. has anyone used a lock strip to fill the gap? or if anybody knows of a seal that is made to be used without the trim any input is welcome thank you.
