Take it back to the shop and tell them that they get to buy you new molding and put it in. I replaced my front windshield and they told me that it would be ALMOST impossible to get the stock windsheild moulding out and get it to seal again. I told them to just replace it with a new one. Also, if they tell you that they have to use the nissan moulding, they are full of ****. There is a different one that will work just as well. Try and take it to a Hardings Glass if you have one. They do the best work in my area. They have a great warrenty too. Good luck!

Sorry, I know this is an old post, but I searched and this was all I can find, is this true that I cannot take off my windshield moulding, it cracked and parts of it are falling off, so I figured I could just rip it out and replace it for a lot cheaper than the stores, has anyone done this before? help me, before it starts to rain again.
