Starting serious work on my next project, making sure I have the needed parts before I get too deep. I bought a new windshield, but my glass guy doesn't have the reveal molding for it. Honda has long discontinued it. It is a small flexible "T" with a harpoon style anchor that gets squished into the urethane after the windshield is installed, goes along the top and sides. Does anyone know where I could get it? Or, a generic molding? Or, a similar style from another car? it certainly does not seem too special. thanks. Mike

Check Ebay, I've seen them for my 98 Civic on there.
Good luck!

Been looking for almost a year. The 1st generation CRX's are MUCH harder to find parts for than 2nd gens. But, this is what my wife wants... so.... I have to think there is a generic reveal that I can use. The body guys here must have run into this on some of their projects! (I hope) Mike

I would be calling around to see if any local junk yards have any of the CRXs you're looking for. If they say they have the CRX you can take a ride to find the parts you need. Be sure to take tools because you may need to remove the parts yourself.

That sound virtually identical to the one that was used on my 96 (95-995) Olds Aurora.

I have the old one in hand, I'm thinking I'll be visiting dealerships, hoping for a parts guy that doesn't mind looking around. I would think I can find something that will work. Thanks!
