Ok since my missus posted up a thread about her window trim. And a few people are interested.
I want to start a show me yours thread.
So basically tell us what type of trim surrounds your windscreen.?
what year you car is I.e pre face lift or post. 4th gens only I think.
Pictures too
So I have a face lift 1994 with a beautiful rubber seal all the way around.
Don't know if this is standard or not? As a few people have said they have only ever seen the clip in plastic trim.

Looks like the 5G trim - pretty sure the 5G screen fits the 4G so perhaps it was replaced and upgraded while they were at it

Oh I do hope that is the case Donald, anyone have pics of the 5th gen trim, can it be peeled back like GreenyUK's?

Yeah it does peel back - had a goosey at mine earlier. I didn't pull it as far out as in the picture from the other thread, but it was enough for me to see the grot under there and think I should probably give it a wipe.
After a quick search it seems in the US quite a lot of 4th genners replace theirs with 5th gen screens because the trim is moulded already to the glass or something (and is of course beautiful rubber).

Hmm not sure its moulded, when I had my old 5th gen that got the windows replaced the trim was separate, they billed roughly £300 for the screen and another £100 odd for the trim, trims can be had alot cheaper tho from these guys

Full new 4th gen including clips is £70
Full new 5th gen rubber type £35
