Roof Rail Weatherstrip - Replacement

NO: 23-76-94

GROUP: Body

DATE: Oct. 28, 1994

SUBJECT:

Roof Rail Weatherstrip Replacement

MODELS:

1995 (PL) Neon

DISCUSSION:

When replacing the roof rail weatherstrip, it is necessary to remove the B-Pillar applique as part of the procedure.

If the B-Pillar applique is not damaged upon removal (upper bracket is not broken or split, lower fastener housing is intact), a new replacement applique is not needed.

Additional parts have been released to service the B-Pillar applique for re-installation. The 4-door model applique uses an upper retainer, P/N 5303019 (black color), and a lower retainer, P/N 5303162 (white color). The 2-door model applique uses P/N 5303162 for both upper and lower retainer.

In all cases when the B-Pillar applique is removed, the old adhesive tape must be cleaned from the body and the applique. Use P/N 5303360 adhesive tape for installation.
