Default Anyone know this part #?

Does anyone know the part number for this. It's the triangle molding piece at the windshield. I broke one of the tabs when removing the cowl (someone nested in there).

That was a broken portion of the entire driver's side windshield molding. It's not supposed to be two pieces. LOL! In fact, I think that's my picture from my DIY thread.

Yes, it may be your photo. I used that thread to remove the cowl because some creature had moved in there (good write up). I just looked at it again, and you are correct that it is the entire molding piece. I thought I remembered it as a separate piece (probably because it looks like a separate piece in the pic). But I guess I just lifted it up a bit to get the cowl out. Unless I can figure out how to fix just that end (it pops up a bit because the last clip is broken), I will have to replace the entire thing.

Thanks.

The clips are one time use. You will need to order a set. They are about $10 a set for each Windshield trim piece. So if your clip is broken you will need to buy a set to seat it properly in place unless you use an adhesive or something.

Thanks. I saw that in another thread, and it did say that new clips will be needed. The clip that is broken on mine is actually attached to the end of the molding (hard to see, but on the right of that pic). Since it's getting cold out, I'll probably wait until the spring for this task.
Thanks.

It's a common problem with the older IS's have similar issue with mine also.
