The screw on retainer strip requires a different type of windlace so you would have to return yours. As far as I know the channel is not reproduced. The last 6" of mine was rotten near the floor so I cut what I could salvage into sections about 1 1/2" long and spaced them equally down the kick panel and riveted them on. It was a little tricky to feed it through the pc's. but it lays nicely and you can't tell the channel is not continuous. Or maybe somebody can set you up with some used channel.
