didnt see it on there

 

anybody?

 

Depending on your pocket book, you might try the dealer.
Or maybe a wrecking yard, autobody shop might be able to get one for you and even put it on.
You could try the "parts for sale" section, someone is always parting out cars.

 

Try the parts for sale on this forum. When putting it back on the car use 3M double stick tape. You will find it at your local auto paint supplier store.

 

ok thanks

 

Dont use that, Use Super Weatherstrip Adhesive by Permatex. Its pretty close to what the factory used and worked great on mine after I had that problem. I think its like $3.95 and can be found in lots of auto stores.
Just peel off the bad spots, Clean and apply adhesive to BOTH sides and hold or tape in place till set.

Interesting. Yeah I noticed the glue kinda stuff they used. I bought 3M tape but it was too thick and made the trim stick out (get the thinnest stuff available), so I bought some stuff from Pep Boys and its been ok so far. Had to redo one of them; I suppose I didn't clean it enough the first time.
