Looking for a part or part #

I need the main weatherstrip for my driver's door. It starts as the triangle where the rear view mirror mounts (and the window runs inside it there), then it runs all the way around the door to the back side. On mboemparts.com the only thing I see is under the door glass diagram, and it's called "run channel" - part number 209-720-01-78. I can't imagine what else it would be, but the name threw me - I would expect it to be called a seal or weatherstrip, although the glass does go inside it by the mirror, so maybe that explains the name. Can somebody confirm that is the part? Thanks.

When you google that part number it sure looks like what you need. There's a couple wis diagrams on images that'd also seem to agree.

Thanks. I agree. I just would not call it a channel. It is just over $100 less expensive online than at the dealer. That's ridiculous.

NO LONGER ACTIVE
MBOEMPARTS is a dealer - MB of Naperville, IL. They just sell at a discount online. When I needed a hose for the ABC system on the SL, they were around $250 on a retail price of $400. When I called my local dealer, they were quoting $500 and said they couldn't even discount to the posted $400 retail! My understanding is that all MBZ dealers pay the same wholesale prices for parts, then they decide what to charge for them.
