Rubber strip on roof buzzing

Hey all,

Tried searching through the forum for this particular issue, but haven't found anything specific to my issue. If I happened to miss it, please share!

I've noticed a buzzing sound that has become more and more frequent. The sound is coming from the passenger side black rubber stripping that goes from the bottom of the windshield all the way to the back of the roof. It appears after years of weather and heat the glue that holds it down has failed and no longer holds down the strip to the body, thus allowing air to get in there and make it buzz around.

It looks like I may be able to pull it up, clean all the pollen and dirt off, then glue it back down, however I am not sure what kind of glue I should use, or if I should just purchase a new, clean piece of stripping.

What do you guys think?

Just clean it up and re-apply with 3M trim adhesive.
