anybody have any ideas on how to remove the trim from the outside (without effing it up)?

I want to inspect my sealant...



thank you gentlemen

What year, make and model of car?

I don't think you're going to see much after removing the trim... just the big rubber gasket that holds the windshield in place.

-Did The Factory Finish Them Differently - Car to Car ?

Before we go into taking off the mouldings, which can be troublesome to get back on... are you trying to hunt down a water leak?

If yes... have you checked your windshield wiper pivots as they come through from under the dash to outside of car? This is the most common leakage point for these vehicles.

Schumaker sells a kit for this. See this website: http://www.engine-swaps.com/ and scroll down on the left for "Wiper Seal and Firewall Gasket Kits"

Sure Am... It's Pretty Bad, Water Everywhere!

I Pulled The Carpet + Jute To Keep The Water From Sticking Around Too Long, Removed The Plugs From The Floor Pan So The Water Could Drain, And Then Replaced The Wiper Seals. Still Leaks Pretty Bad.


After Reading Every Thread That Came Up Under Several "Water" and "Leak" Type Search Keywords; I Feel That This Is The Solution.

I Need To Replace The Glass Anyway, It's Got A Nice Ding Right In My Field Of Vision.
