I did searches on three sites, and can't find this addressed anywhere.
I have four black plastic spacer blocks that came out of my lower windshield molding. 8 lower clips but only four blocks, so I know there isn't one between each pair of clips (that would require 7).
I believe their purpose is to:
1. Prevent installing the molding too high to insure the clips aren't digging into the glass, possibly starting a crack,
and
2. Spacing the molding slightly away from the cowl vent panel so the molding doesn't scratch.
I am therefore assuming (dangerous) that they just get spaced evenly across the molding.
Correct me if I am wrong.
Any help appreciated.
