I recently got a new windshield on my '04 G35x Sedan. I think the windshield people messed up on the weather stripping that runs along the roof (above both doors). A few weeks ago, I drove through a car wash, and both strips had come out all the way to mid point on the rear doors and were thwacking away at the side of the car. Fortunately no scratching occured. I tucked them back in and assumed all was good. This morning, on the way to work, I was driving about 75, and one of them popped out again and was making all sorts of noise as it hit against the side of the car and trunk lid. It actually cracked where it bent back all the way.

Any suggestions? Do I need to replace these strips, glue them down, or do something else?
