Front window trim twist
« on: January 10, 2011 - 06:19:34 PM »
Any ideas how i can fix this? It appears that the bottom of the female side was trimmed off a bit, because these peices will not stay together.    :screwy:

Can you relax the curl on the top, then add a little to the bottom?  Maybe reduce the width of the male piece just a little? 
At times there is used trim for sale here and on ebay.  Maybe just spring for a decent replacement?

from the picture it looks like the topside of the male part has too much curve. If you can flatten it a bit  the molding will have less tension and will be a tad wider as well.... might be just enough to stay in there...  :dunno:
