Re: Windshield pad replacement
thank you guys! really appreciated your comments. maybe i'm worry too much about windshield replacement. but from when i read, i don't see safelite mention rubber dam during the replacement, when i look up honda part, there are rubber dams in the diagram, do they skip this part?

Re: Windshield pad replacement
I have my three piece all cut and ready to glue in. The driver side is flush against the window frame but the passenger side has a gap. I was thinking of using a heat gun to make it fit tight but don't want to melt the plastic. If we have a choice, what comes first, the trim or the windshield?

Re: Windshield pad replacement
I see you did not tuck the trim under the windshield weatherstrip. Did it stay this way?redroadster68 wrote: Tue Dec 18, 2018 2:00 pm IMG_6465.PNGyes indead, I used a whole lot of clamps of differing shapes and sizes. turned out looking awesome
