Hope I can see what I'm doing in the darkyou got it buddy, as for what glue.. hmm... you know, some of that sticky weatherstripping stuff that never dries, that might work good too.

Unless it's broken at the windshield side or the weather strip side, try clipping it back on.

Silicon sealant is what they use, IIRC. Then you need to duct tape or masking tape it down while it dries for a day or so. I'd say masking tape.

I think so, but maybe not. Guess I will find out on Sunday. Do you have the one in the front? That is what I was asking you about before.

It was too late to go get anything new by the time I got home from work, so I used this trim adhesive that seems to work so far.. but I am kinda nervous because its been so wet. Thanks for the masking tape idea, Scott!
