The Precision Windshield Molding WFS D998 is a direct-fit exterior trim designed to secure and seal the windshield edge while restoring factory appearance. It provides a weather-resistant barrier that helps prevent water intrusion, reduce wind noise, and protect the windshield bead from damage. Built for longevity and ease of replacement, this molding is ideal for routine maintenance, collision repair, and full restorations—verify vehicle fitment before ordering to ensure compatibility.
Features:
- Weather-resistant EPDM construction for long-lasting durability and UV resistance.
- Profile matches OEM contours for a snug, factory-style fit and finish.
- Secures and seals the windshield edge to reduce leaks and wind noise.
- Protects windshield bead from chips, abrasion, and corrosion.
- Straightforward replacement for worn, cracked, or missing moldings—restoration-ready.
- Corrosion-resistant internal retention channel holds molding securely in place.
Installation / Application:
- Difficulty: 3/5
- Estimated time: 45–90 minutes
Instructions:
- Confirm part number and dry-fit the molding to the windshield area to verify correct orientation and fit.
- Carefully remove the old molding: use a plastic trim tool to pry the edge away, working slowly to avoid scratching glass or paint. If fasteners are present, remove them first.
- Clean the windshield flange and surrounding pinch-weld area thoroughly with adhesive remover or isopropyl alcohol. Remove all old adhesive, dirt, and corrosion. Allow surface to dry.
- Inspect the pinch-weld and glass bead; repair any rust, dents, or damaged sealant before installing the new molding.
- If recommended for your vehicle, apply a thin coat of automotive primer/sealer to the pinch-weld and allow to flash per product instructions.
- Apply the appropriate molding adhesive or double-sided automotive tape to the pinch-weld or to the inner channel of the new molding, following adhesive manufacturer instructions.
- Starting at one corner, press the molding into place along the windshield edge. Use even pressure and a rubber mallet or soft-faced hammer wrapped in a cloth to seat the molding without damaging the finish.
- Trim any excess molding material with a utility knife if required, and reinstall any retained clips or trim pieces removed earlier.
- Allow adhesive to cure fully per the adhesive manufacturer’s recommendations before driving; recheck fitment and seal after cure.
- If you encounter fitment issues or extensive corrosion, consider professional installation—some vehicles require partial or full windshield removal for proper replacement.
