Front windscreen trim
Does the outer trim clip off, with the screen in situ?

Re: Front windscreen trim
If you remove the rubber trim\seal it may be hard to get it to fit back perfectly and allow moisture in, a new one from Toyota is around
£60.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)

Hmmm.
If you can still get them and they are just pushed into the chanel after the screen is bonded in, I reckon I will try and remove it.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)

Re: Front windscreen trim
I had a windscreen replaced just over a year ago.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Since then the rubber trim popped out one day up the driver side.

I pushed it back in but it wouldnt stay in so I taped over it to stop the airflow lifting it out around 40mph.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
Now the trim is glued in on that side at least.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)

That was a brand new rubber trim.

but I dont think the windscreen company fitted it properly.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)

If it is not fitted properly you will get more wind noise even if the glass is bonded in properly.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)

Re: Front windscreen trim
Typical.
Some things never fit right, afterwards.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)

Having done a bit of Googling, at least they are still available.![](./images/smilies/spacer.gif)
As suggested above.
