Windshield Housing?

Robdog007 · 09-01-2006, 02:01 AM

I don't know what else to call it, so I'll let the pic explain.

Am I going to be making another trip to the dealership?

Yep. There were a few threads about this.

Robare · 09-02-2006, 12:53 PM

06SILVERSI · 09-02-2006, 07:25 PM

06SILVERSI · 09-02-2006, 07:25 PM

Damm... I have the same freaking problem...

06CivEXJon · 09-04-2006, 12:44 AM

Same but the weather stripping by that area is popping up.

BTW... That is called a cowl. Some may call it "windshield cowling" or "lower windshield cowling..."
Remember Cowl Induction hoods of musclecar fame? :)

Has anybody brought this in. If so how did they fix it.

Sli(ks · 09-04-2006, 01:23 PM

Could it be the cleaning solution you're using maybe? Like is it corrosive enough to desolve whatever cheap glue honda used to hold that toegether?

Or maybe you've been flying down the road at 140 mph and it's wind damage, heh.

I have like 4,000 miles on my lx coupe and my "cowling" is perfectly fine, dirty as hell, but fine.

There is no "glue" that holds this piece in. That part of the cowl in the picture just lays against the glass is all. Also appears to be warping from what I can see. That center cowling piece is held in place by 3 trim screws and snaps in place on either end. Not much to it really. Looks like yours will have to be replaced.
