Help with window trim/clips on B Body. #1205221 03/28/12 05:09 PM 03/28/12 05:09 PM

Is there an easy fix for this? A long time ago there was some kind of way to rivet the clip on, but I think it was a kit or something?? I know an option is to permanantly attach the trim with 2 part epoxy at the place missing the clips, but would rather do it as close to original as possible. Any suggestions? 1969 Dodge Super Bee Hardtop 2007 Nissan Altima 3.5SE

It may be necessary to remove the glass to get the clips in place. There are complete clip sets available from many different vendors. Good luck.

Apparently the two trim pieces were urethaned in before! I need a better way to attach my trim. Last edited by BFASTER; 03/30/12 09:51 PM. 1969 Dodge Super Bee Hardtop 2007 Nissan Altima 3.5SE

I have seen many A bodies with sillycone around the glass edges in a terrible attemp to keep water out. Sometimes the leaks are from poor wiper pivot seals, NOT the windshield. Read my initial post....I am NOT talking about the windshield! I'm talking about the rear window. 1969 Dodge Super Bee Hardtop 2007 Nissan Altima 3.5SE
