Default WJ glass wiper strip

Anybody having the same trouble I am? The inside glass wiper strip has taken to rolling under and interfering with opening the window by jamming the glass to the point where it almost stops moving. If I pull on the top of the door panel it will not roll over, but once it does, I have to run it up a bit and try again. If it's wet, to works perfectly. I tried Amourall on the rubber and that works for a short while, but streaks the glass.

This jeep has 225K miles on it and this problem started last winter. It was pretty much okay all summer, but now that it's getting colder it's back. The outer strip is now loose as well. This is just on the driver's door. All the others are working fine.

Can I buy new strips and would that work? Probably a dealer item that will have to be ordered, IF they still have them. Do you think JY ones would be worthwhile removing?
