Windows window thing lol

Andrea · 21st August 2006, 11:40

what do you guys think of this?? i have tried to push it back in but it wont budge.

im not very good at expaining thing but it is on the passenger door under the window, at the end of the seal.
any advice would be good. planning on going into dealer soon XX

Hi Andrea, looks like it needs pushing from the other end as the blanking piece seems to be in the correct place.

Big-Chris · 21st August 2006, 12:54

agreed - it looks like the seal is misaligned rather than the endstop - do you have a comparable overhang at the other end? will the seal move at all?

Andrea · 21st August 2006, 13:00

thanks guys, i will check it out and let you know XX

Looks like it may be a bit difficult as the other end of that trim goes behind the wing mirror cover plate. If you lower the window you may be able to get some purchase on it to slide it back, otherwise it's back to the dealer. They will probably do it under warranty though. Al.

hey, just to let you guys know that i took your advice and slid it across from the other end, it did go back into place but it feels a bit loose, will still take it into dealer to get it checked out!!
thanks again peeps

Srange! Any idea how it might have happenned ?

Andrea · 22nd August 2006, 10:25

have no idea to be honest. it is in place now, still gonna get it checked out tho. XX

Big-Chris · 22nd August 2006, 10:54

hmm, could this be more of the less-than-legendary build quality that has blighted our beloved civic?

they'll probably just put a dollop of glue in there to hold it in place

I think you are right Big Chris. I had to finish off building my Civic by pushing the seal around the passenger door into place. Maybe it's the same person in the factory?

Hopefully any Honda spies looking here will be able to locate said person and apply the necessary electrocution to certain body parts so that cars rolling of the production line in October don't have this problem !!!!
