Rubber window molding...

[speedyts49]

... is coming loose on both sides. Is there a glue that would keep them up or some other way that comes to mind? Maybe some new ones but they probably cost a pretty penny.

i think the same thing is happening to me
are your windows not sealing properly because of the molding?
cause mine just wedges up the molding instead on compressing them

anyways someone suggested me Butyl Rubber tape because its sticky and wateproof

Hey that is worth a try. We just got the car running perfect after almost 2 years and want to complete it by fixing the little stuff. I may have to give the dealer a call on the rubber stuff. If you try the glue let us know how it works!

i found out that the molding is only held on by glue and there are 4 small holes behind them
the holes arent a problem for me because im just going to be reglueing the molding back on
i'll probably try to get the molding off tomorrow and see how it goes

Did you get a chance to check it out yet?

i dont have alot of time this week
i got school and i have to find new tires
i started to pull some of the rubber off at the back of the door
it gets harder when you get to the top
but its still too cold here (Canada) and i need a heat gun or something

and do u know if that plastic strip about the molding comes off easily?
it might be easier with that off

Yeah I bet it is a bit on the chilly side up your way. I may be going in to get a fuel pressure gage soon so I will ask the guy at the auto parts store what they recommend.
Stay warm

thanks
another suggestion i got is to adjust the angle of the window inside the door panel
i will most definately try this first before ripping off the molding
