Default Problem with Plastic Cowl

The big plastic cowling that covers the cabin air filter is not staying down tight against the bottom of the windshield like it should. Is there some trick to getting this thing to stay in place??

just pop it down with heel of your hand. Make sure lined up properly and careful not to crack bottom of glass.

Thanks - I'll have another go at it when the weather warms back up. I've tried a couple of times to pop it back, but, a day later its loose again.

I had (have) the same problem. Minecomes loose because of a lip that slips under the windshed and holds it tight is broken off places. Check you lip, you might of riped it off if you tryed to take it off before.

Thanks - I did pop it up to see if anything was amiss on the last warm day we had. I'll take another look at it.
