Anyone?

DanG · 06-21-2014, 09:45 PM

Mine is just like yours. No molding on the back window. Their are water channels all the way around the window though.

Lucky13 · 06-21-2014, 10:01 PM

Mine's the same, checked the back window in the X1 and it has the same design as well.

That is clean BMW design! No worries!

3 series is like that too. Looked weird to me at first but it's for routing water through the channels under the trunk lid.

Also routes leaves, sticks, dirt, nuts, berries, half the entire world it seems. Tired of cleaning it out, that crevice between the trunk and window is too large, IMO.

Yep, no rubber moulding on M235i - scary but real cool... I used to hate it anyway because in older models (325i, 335i) the rubber arround the bottom of the rear windshield would eventually start to slip and require replacement.
