You don't need new ones! I had the same issue. There is no glue or double sided tape needed. When I had my 4runner painted, I took it completely apart. With the roof rack off I did a test fit and they were tight. You don't have to take the roof rack off, only one side at a time. Slide the moldings in from the rear. The rear moldings behind the roof rack slide out. Get some dielectric grease or any non petroleum grease. Just clean out all the grooves in the channels (while your in there), and slide the moldings in under the bump outs in the channels in the roof.
Mine have been tight since I put it back together ( about 5 months ), and multiple car washes. They were installed from the factory with no tape or glue.
