Help! Leak, Plastic Removal.
Alright guys. I need to know how to remove the plastic trim behind the window glass of a 2 door. I am guessing it just pops out but I don't wanna break it. This is what I need removed.
I have a leak coming from that area on the cubby side. It drips water through the top of the cubby plastic vent on top then leaks down the cubby into the floor. I am trying to track it down now since it's raining cats and dogs.

Got it removed. Two little nuts. Didn't help me to track down the leak though. I can't see up in there far enough. Gonna hit the parts store and get one of those mirrors on a stick Gotta fix the leak. That is most always a Jeep's problem is leaks making them rot from the inside out.

Well I am checking it out now. It's not the roof rack. I can pour water in the valley where the hatch is and it starts leaking in. I am going to start sealing different spots until it stops. Gonna be a pain I think.

Seemed to be coming in around the Rubber grommet seal where the rear washer fluid goes into the hatch. I silicone'd it up real good and I will check it with some water when it cures up. Hope that does it. Got a lot of other work to get done.

It was the rubber grommet for the rear wiper washer. I tested it with a ton of water and not one drip. Before I done it there was a stream almost. Woohoo, Glad that's over.
