I'm having a couple of weird problems.

1. First is the "drip moldings" (according to Ford parts ) on both sides are coming loose on the ends (above the windshield and rear window) and look like crap. They are the black plastic pieces that run the full length of the roof from the windshield to the rear window, one on either side of the car. The plastic is starting to look whitish and crumbly, and the ends are loose.

Anyone have any experience replacing them? Would a junkyard one work, or should I buy new. They are about $35 a piece. How are they attached?


2. My trunk lid seems out of place. The gap on the driver's side is much larger than the passengers. I haven't noticed this before, so I think it's a new occurance.

Can that be fixed?

Any advice on either of these problems would be appreciated. Thanks !




ANY OTHER IDEAS/ EXPERIENCE on the drip moldings and trunk lid alignment?

3. I just noticed that my headlights have some water in them. It HAS been raining like crazy here, but they have never had water in them before. I have not done anything to them except dehazing. No mods.

Any ideas on likely areas to check for cracks/ leaks etc. ? Any ideas? Where should I check?
