Trim on Front Head

[WOO5IE]

Just a little tip that appears to have worked perfectly on the trim on the front edge of the head by the windscreen.


I had it re-glued by a car trimmer 6 months ago and he said it was a pig of a job as there isnt enough material to be able to poke it in the gap between the windscreen.
It has all come unstuck again.
The only solution appeared to be to take the screen out with all of the associated hassle and risks of doing so. And the cost

So I tried using the piping @

Cost £7 inc p&p

Result a nice tidy fix. More or less invisible
The piping flange is ribbed so hopefully will prevent it sliding down.
If it does eventually some adhesive will keep it in place. It is quite solid at the moment.
This must be a common problem and looks a mess from the outside. TVR scimped on the amount of material it used and it often gets hot when the sun shines.

Its cause when some idiot replaced the screen in your cars past they cut the trim instead of peeling it away from the screen. The RAC did it to mine and they had to pay to re-uplholster the dash.
