Need some Help on gutter insert...

I have a 2001 DS gas that has a gutter insert that hides the screws on the roof line...
Both are coming out in spots & are blackish from the weather...
Thinking about pulling the inserts out as I reseal the roof/wall seams on both sides...
Can you buy this plastic/vynal insert...
What would you use to clean the insert?
Looks like the same around the door also...
Thanks,
Bob

The RV dealer near my home sells various colors and widths of that plastic insert.
Maybe they all do?

You can find any type here, also when you are checking the sealant on roof check the wrap up front on both sides for good sealant between the front cap and sided wall seam, water can get under there when driving, the back same areas also need to be check if you had driving rains.
I used a flat plastic spatler to clean out old sealant.

Front & back caps have been taped already...
Redid the black & grey vent covers as there was a leak on one of them...
New AC shrouds installed...
Sealing the pop up vents next but sooooo HOT in Texas & can stay on the roof for just a bit, will finish sealing this fall...
