FYI - Thanks to those that have recently spoken (typed?) up after I've
asked a couple of how-to questions.
First one was how to replace shift position indicator bulb. Was V-E-R-Y
simple (bought the Haines manual as well...).
Second was a sticking fuel filler door lock release. Pulled the unit, lubed
it up, no problems.
Now, I've noticed (a trend?) another problem.
The black trim that runs horizontally across the top of the windshield
was flapping in the breeze today. I
pushed it back in, but it isn't fitting very nice and tightly flush against
the glass. Once loose, does this trim
require replacement, vice simply reinstalling? Does it get soft and not
fit as tight with age?
Thanks,
Barry
I had to replace mine also. It is very simple to install... snaps into
place >5 min. List was $29.17, $23.34
is what I paid thru my Brother-in-laws shop. Thanks,Tim.

2 and 1 question" posted by tim.
Thanks Tim. I should have asked another question.
Does that trim NEED to fit extremely tight/flush against the glass to keep
water out, or is this an aesthetic trim piece?
It fits pretty tight, but I could see water getting up underneath because
it isn't quite as tight as before.
I guess that for $30 I'll swap it, but I'm curious...
Thanks,
Barry
Barry,
It's mostly for appearance. You can also use silicone caulk to reinstall
it if your wish.
