Guys I'm planning on replacing my rear strip as well , but have one question if any of you guys could help . My 545i has rear comfort glass so is there any difference on strip ? ? I mean is there a different strip or just the regular normal strip ?? Planning on doing it once I get a clean answer . Thanks in advance

Whats up folks!
I bought my 2006 E60 M5 and I had the same problem with that trim.I wanted to get rid of that so I went to the Circle BMW on route 36 east,NJ and spoke to the guy about to fix that and he told me I will have to replace the windshield and the cost will be 1,400.00!After that I started searching and I found the 5series forums with all the answers including videos of how to change the Trim/seal.
I just ordered from ECS Tunning and I'll definitely do it by my self!
Thanks to all you guys!

Hey All...
So my rear window rubber trim is deteriorating and it needs to be replaced..
BMW want's like $400 - says the rear window needs to be removed to install...
Local glass place wants $130, but I gotta buy the part on my own (they also said glass needs to come out)...
BMW "specialty" mechanic quoted $199 BUT will be more if glass has to come out AND they said it could break since it's
been in so long ('04) which of course means even more $$ and additional $$ for my tint!
Can this be done as a DYI??? The part from BMW is like $70.
Any experience with this..anyone
Thanks!
