Unhappy Widshield molding came off.

My bride and I went out sunday for a cruise. I cranked her up to about 110 mph,. I heard a flapping noise. The molding around the windshield was comming lose. Any body else have this problem. Does anybody have the fix. Thanks. Bob.

Bob,
I had the same thing happen to mind about a week ago. I don't believe the molding on mind was fully seated in the groove to begin with. After inserting it fully back in the groove I have had no more problem.

HeHeHe those trips over 100 seem to do that on a lot of L's.

I used 3M Black Super Weatherstrip Adhesive, no more problems.
