re-attaching trim ??????

Our trim is coming off the Montana.
I can pinch it back in place but it no longer stays.
Do I need to purchase new trim moulding or can I put dabs of super glue or caulking every few inches?...SMALL dabs.

Replace it with new molding. Its not worth the trouble to try and keep the old rubber in the holder.

Using glue will make you wish you hadn't later when you find the need to fix it again.

Agree. It is a replaceable item. Measure the correct width though.

Time and the sun have caused it to shrink. Time for new moulding.

While you're there pull the screws out put a dab of sealant on the screw and run the screw back in being very careful not to over tighten the screws

The rubber molding is the firs line of defense. Sealant on the screws adds a second.
