Strip above windshield 850 1997

posted by  someone claiming to be BillH on  Wed Oct 29 06:41 CST 2003 [RELATED]

There is a plastic or rubber trim piece above my winshield (exterior) that keep coming loose in the middle. I can slide it back in place, but then it comes loose again in a few days from wind. Anyone have a solution?

I lost mine, so I had to buy a replacemnet for $30 at the dealer. I used a small strip of clear silicone caulk to the whole strip and is holding good.

Had the same problem. I bought a bottle of "Pliobond" at the local Ace. It's a great adhesive and is all weather. Brush some to the area that keeps coming off and push the trim piece back in the slot between the window and frame. The stuff is a bit messy but well worth it. It's a good all purpose adhesive to have in the garage too.

Good luck
