Prius (2004-09) :: Bottom Molding Detached After Windshield Replacement
Maybe "detached" is the wrong word, but it's sticking up a bit on one of the sides such that it's not touching the windshield (see attached picture).
I don't think it was like that before, however, and I'm wondering:
1. Should I even care?
2. Is there an easy way of making it sit flush that a non-car guy could handle?
3. Is this something I should call the windshield guy back to do?
Lexus LS 2007+ :: Windshield Missing Molding Piece Causing Wind Noise?
I just noticed yesterday that on my windshield, next to the wipers, I'm missing a molding piece. I think that's why there are some wind noise in that area. Attached are two pictures. The one of the passenger side you can see the black molding. The one of the driver side is missing it. What is the part number?

I am trying to replace the MG2 on my 2002 Prius. I have to lower the Engine to get access to MG2. I have already lowered suspension member (sitting on ground with rack on top of it but still connected on sides), removed the torque rod and moved the inverter enough to get access to the LH engine mounting nut. My plan is to start lowering the engine from LH side to get access to MG2 without removing anything else. Is this going to work or should I remove more things?

Long story short, the tint shop burned my exterior door pillar when I got it tinted like 8 months ago. Just now felt like dealing with it, so I got the new part in. How to replace it? The back has a lot of what looks like double sided tape and only 1 clip. In order to get the other one off it looks like I have to take off the chrome strip at the bottom since the black molding goes underneath the chrome...
Pic of how the molding is on the car ....

View 5 RepliesCamry :: 2009 XLE - Removing Back Deck Cover To Replace Speakers
I have a 2009 Camry XLE with the split reclining rear seats and the retractable (stupid) sunshade. I bought new 6x9's to replace speakers all around (Infinity 9632) with adapter plates. Got the door speakers replaced easily enough, but for the life of me I cannot figure out the rear deck. It is all one piece of plastic, no removable speaker grills. And of course the speakers are screwed in top down. Most of the posts I have found on the internet are either for previous gen Camry's or people who have the folding down rear seat.
So after a lot of manual labor I was able to remove the back seat completely and the center console. I can pop the front of the back plate up and peek in, but cannot get it to come out. I think something is odd with the models with the retractable sunscreen and reclining seats.
I have scoured the internet endlessly. Closest post I found was "take off the rear side panels (by the back window) and the deck should pop out. There are airbags in there, not very keen on forcing anything.
The car has the "premium" JBL sound system which I found to not be so "premium" and was a serious step down from my last car's factory stereo.

So first day back to work after the holiday season and I got clocked with a giant rock on the highway which put a chip in my hood and then put a nice crack in my windshield. So far it hasn't spread and it's not on the driver's side so luckily it's not impairing my vision.
And, did you have the dealer do it or a windshield repair place? I'm concerned about the rain sensor.

View 2 RepliesPassat (B5) :: How To Replace Windshield Wiper Motor
The windshield wipers aren't working properly. I can hear the motor trying to work, and either blade will try to work but get stuck against each other. I checked the fuses and nothing is burned out. I'm not sure if it is related to the problem but yesterday my husband was washing the car and I noticed that he had pulled the wiper blades away from the windshield so they were sticking up in the air. We filled the wiper fluid. I'm wondering if something got broken when he opened the hood without putting the blades down? They seem out of sync. He also did an oil change. Could he have done something to cause this problem while doing the oil change?
I want to open up and take a look at the motor functions, but I'm not sure where it's located and how to get to it.
