i've had this car since 2005, and now i'm noticing that the window trims are not lining up anymore.

i can push it down, but of course it creeps back up.
save from going to the dealer, is there a quick and fast way to keep it lined up in place?

thanks

You can do it yourself. Pull the trim up and you will find a sticky material lying under it. Take it off, straighten it and stick it on the edge again, then press the trim onto it again and it will stay and look as new. Just had it done at the dealer 4 days ago
