Default Wind Screen trim

Hello all,
Our wind screen trim is coming loose at the lower extrem corners.
I cant tell wether or not there were tabs of sorts the would have been held in place by the rubber gasket material.
Is this something that is common and should I epoxy these back in place?
TIA
Peace
Neil

As I recall...it's a bit foggy to me right now....the trim sorta snapped into a channel on the rubber weatherstrip.

The long lower piece has a couple of screws underneath the air inlet grille and the pillar pices have a couple of rivets...but I think all the rest just sorts snaps into place.

Or it's supposed to.

I had one helluva time getting mine to fit properly and once it's distorted, even a little, you're up the creek.

Anyhow, I used silicone adhesive.....

Others with better memories might chime in

Cheers
DD
