Hey guys, I've been doing some work on my wipers, they stopped 1/3 way on the windshield, i took off the windshield trim, and loosened the drive arm and reset everything back to were it should, and bolted everything back, now the wipers work perfectly, however, i can't seem to install the windshield trim (gutter?) back on.

there's a little rubber rail on the windshield where the plastic trim should sit, this rubber has come loose and I don't know how to install things, is it a matter of using some glue to stick it in place ? or is there another trick I don't know about ?

Here's a picture of the rubber I'm talking about:

and here's the plastic trim, it has a line as you see that's supposed to fit into the slit on the windshield rubber.


Any thoughts ? I'm thinking of superglue to put the rubber back in place but I'm worried i'll only be making things worse

Ok just wanted to update you that i got it fixed, i had to pull out the cabin filter box and use my hands to hold it in place to support while installing the cover back on, and the same on the other side, removed the wiper control arm out of the ball joint to get space, and held it in place, once both sides popped in the rails, the middle was really easy to push in, just a couple of hits and it just went back.

if you're doing work and got stuck like me, just use lots of silicon lubricant and start on both sides, and drink lots of beer !
