I'd using something like this:
LRSWIWKIT SERIES FRONT DOOR TOP WINDOW CHANNEL KIT | Land Rover Series 1948-1984: Body/Fittings: Glass/Windscreen | shop | www.lrseries.com | L. R. Series
Although, it doesn't include the moss as standard, i think that's a LR direct part, although, if you're happy to give it a few months it will occur, just depends if you want it to be a genuine Land Rover window channel straight away or are happy to wait a few months.

works well for me.
The plastic stuff doesn't grow mould either so is really not authentic.

I appreciate this thread is a few years old however since buying a series 3 I seem to create a post every other day so thought I would have a look at previous posts
What is the difference between the top window channel and the bottom (apart from the lock whole being cut out )? I have one window that keeps falling out on me and hitting me on the head when I turn a corner and the other passenger window lower channel has fallen apart.
I was wondering if I could just buy a metre of channel from ebay and do both jobs with the one piece , not sure why upper and lower parts are sold seperately is it just a issue of the length of the channel
Thanks.

Last set I did with stainless steel/plastic window channels from a marine supply. Cheap it most certainly was not, but considering I personally find moss annoying I decided once and done was much more to my tastes.
If you search the online marine suppliers I am sure you can find it - the one I got was in 8-foot sticks (2.5 meters or thereabouts) and was easily cut to size with a fine-bladed hacksaw.
